With the rapid increase in the use of online content and accessing digital data, it’s becoming challenging for the services providers to handle the demands of massive amount of data, live high definition video, flash sales, and large downloads. Content Delivery Network (CDN) has proven to be boon in addressing this challenge. Content Delivery Network (CDN) is refers to a geographically distributed group of servers which work together with the objective of delivering content as quickly, cheaply, reliably, and securely as possible. CDN is specifically built to make the Internet work better and deliver media at scale.
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 is integrated with AWS – both physical locations that are directly connected to the AWS global infrastructure, as well as other AWS services.
You can get started with the Content Delivery Network in minutes, using the same AWS tools that you’re already familiar with: APIs, AWS Management Console, AWS CloudFormation, CLIs, and SDKs.
The globally distributed nature of a CDN means reduce distance between users and resources. The AWS CloudFront network has 216 points of presence (PoPs) in 84 cities across 42 countries, and leverages the highly-resilient Amazon backbone network for superior performance and deliver content to end users with lower latency.
It’s a highly-secure CDN that provides both network and application level protection. It provides various built-in security protections features and many of them comes at no additional cost. CloudFront infrastructure and processes are all compliant with wide range of standards to ensure secure delivery of your most sensitive data.
Load balancing distributes network traffic evenly across several servers, making it easier to scale rapid boosts in traffic. Intelligent failover provides uninterrupted service even if one or more of the CDN servers go offline due to hardware malfunction; the failover can redistribute the traffic to the other operational servers.
Amazon CloudFront features can be customized for your specific application requirements. Amazon CloudFront is integrated with AWS services such as Amazon S3, Amazon EC2, Elastic Load Balancing, Amazon Route 53, and AWS Elemental Media Services. all features in the CDN can be programmatically configured by using APIs or the AWS Management Console.
