Amazon CloudFront Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Amazon CloudFront to serve static media content like (images & videos) to users. We wanted a solution to serve static content without latency and AWS CloudFront addressed this problem. CloudFront also helps to deliver HLS videos to users. With CloudFront, we can sign the URL and server to users with this feature URL gets expired after a certain time and if someone embedded our content then it would be inaccessible. If you want to serve HLS videos then I suggest using signed cookies instead of signed URL. With signed cookies, we do not need to append an authentication token on each URL and it gets authenticated through cookies that pass on each network call.

If your content is vital to the product you sell, or if your content IS what you sell, then you need some kind of content delivery network service. You get redundancy at many levels, protecting you from outages. The speed of access to your content for your customers is improved and stabilized. You don't have to pay for all the hardware and technicians to get the infrastructure set up, which is a huge benefit. AWS tech support is very good in case you need assistance in setting up your CloudFront CDN. The best use for CloudFront is also as part of a 100% AWS-based infrastructure. AWS's services all work well together, but sometimes have issues with outside integration. If your content is not a big piece of your money-making operation, you can probably get away with something simpler.
