AWS Practice - CloudFront Service Delivery |
Amazon CloudFront is a fast content delivery network (CDN) service that securely delivers data, videos, applications, and APIs to customers globally with low latency, high transfer speeds, all within a developer-friendly environment. CloudFront offers the most advanced security capabilities, including field level encryption and HTTPS support, seamlessly integrated with AWS Shield, AWS Web Application Firewall and Route 53 to protect against multiple types of attacks including network and application layer DDoS attacks. These services co-reside at edge networking locations – globally scaled and connected via the AWS network backbone – providing a more secure, performant, and available experience for your users. CloudFront works seamlessly with any AWS origin, such as Amazon S3, Amazon EC2, Elastic Load Balancing, or with any custom HTTP origin. You can customize your content delivery through CloudFront using the secure and programmable edge computing feature AWS Lambda@Edge. |
Global ScalabilityAmazon CloudFront is massively scaled and globally distributed. The CloudFront network has 225+ points of presence (PoPs) that are interconnected via the AWS backbone delivering ultra-low latency performance and high availability to your end users. Amazon CloudFront automatically maps network conditions and intelligently routes your user’s traffic to the most performant AWS edge location to serve up cached or dynamic content. CloudFront comes default with a multi-tiered caching architecture that offers you improved cache width and origin protection. Security at the EdgeAmazon CloudFront is a highly secure CDN that provides both network and application level protection. All your CloudFront distributions are defended by default against the most frequently occurring network and transport layer DDoS attacks that target your websites or applications with AWS Shield Standard. To defend against more complex attacks, you can add a flexible, layered security perimeter by integrating CloudFront with AWS Shield Advanced and AWS Web Application Firewall (WAF). Firewall rules, curated and managed by Amazon security experts, to protect against common CVEs and OWASP Top 10 security risks are provided to you on AWS WAF with Amazon Managed Rules (AMR). Programmable and SecureAmazon CloudFront offers the programmable and secure edge CDN computing capabilities through AWS Lambda@Edge. For application logic customizations at the edge, Lambda@Edge provides you a general-purpose compute runtime feature for computationally intensive operations such as dynamic origin load-balancing, custom bot-management, or building serverless origins. Triggered by CloudFront requests, Lambda@Edge extend custom code across AWS locations worldwide, allowing custom application logic to run closer to your end users for improved responsiveness. Lambda@Edge come with advanced, built-in security isolation to protect your data from side-channel attacks such as Spectre and Meltdown. Cost-EffectiveAmazon CloudFront offers cost-effective content-delivery globally. There is no data transfer fee from any AWS origin to CloudFront for origin fetches. Integration with AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) offers custom TLS certificates, at no charge. CloudFront offers a simple, pay-as-you-go pricing model with no upfront fees or required long-term contracts, and support for the CDN is included in your existing AWS Support subscription. Additional price reductions are available for minimum traffic commitments (typically 10 TB/month or higher).
