"Fast and secure content delivery system to accelerate the distribution of your web content."
What do you like best?
Strong AWS incorporation: Amazon CloudFront is built with AWS Offerings like Amazon S3, Amazon EC2, Amazon Route 53 and AWS Elemental MediaServices as well as Elastic Load Balancing. Both functions are available from the same interface and can be programmed with APIs or an AWS Management Console.
Quick and Worldwide: The Amazon CloudFront Content Delivery Network (CDN) is highly scalable. The CloudFront platform has 217 presence points all around the world and utilizes strong Amazon network structure to provide optimal efficiency and flexibility to the end users.
Safety on the Top: Amazon CloudFront is a highly protected CDN that offers both server and device level security. Your data and apps benefit from a range of built-in security, such as the AWS Shield Standard, at no incremental fee. You can also use customizable functionality such as AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) to build and maintain custom SSL certificates at no added expense.
Highly programmable and APIs and DevOps Software with complete availability: Amazon CloudFront delivers a completely functioning API for designing, configuring and managing your CloudFront deployments. In order to customize and deploy their workloads with Amazon CloudFront, developers also have access to many resources, such as AWS CloudFormation, CodeDeploy, CodeCommit and AWS SDKs.
What do you dislike?
High price: CloudFront is not cheap to use if price is the main concern. AWS charges you for instant assistance and you can pick each of the 3 products that are
1. Developer 2. Business 3. Enterprise
It is recommended to use CloudFront only for files where distribution time and speed are genuinely essential, such as assets for the marketing pages of your main website.
Total absence of transparency of the basic CloudFront framework.
Although Amazon offers a guide to maximizing CloudFront caching efficiency, you don't get a lot of transparency on precisely how cache operates in every area and every type of query. This results in less efficiency relative to a similar self-hosted system that you can customize to your specific use case.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The decision is yours. The advantages of AWS are enough for everyone to want to try it out. Yet there are potential setbacks.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Amazon CloudFront is the best web hosting system that accelerates the delivery of your web content, data delivery, videos and applications with high speed and all within a developer friendly and secure environment. It is also compatible with AWS – including physical sites that are closely linked to the worldwide AWS system and other AWS facilities, which makes access easy.

"Faster Content Delivery"
What do you like best?
There are so many things that Amazon is doing to make it's services easy and secure. The OAI feature is really good and a must use for security reasons. The way edge locations are placed covers all regions very well and delivers content from cache causing a faster response to customers.
What do you dislike?
The issue with creating invalidations in Cloud Front. It quickly scans and caches the data but the minimum time to expire is also too much. Hence, the data cached needs to be cleared manually by creating invalidations in the console. There should be a selective way to push data to certain edges only.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Faster response time, less load on our servers, restricting geographic access and maintaining and restricting flow of S3 bucket to and fro from the OAI feature.

"Excellent choice, especially when running your AWS application"
What do you like best?
CloudFront is simple, flexible and works well together with other Amazon services, as is the case with most things on AWS.
What do you dislike?
It may provide additional options for integration into cloud front of multiple resources or services.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You should definitely start with Cloudhead instead of manually implementing inside of servers if you want to improve the quality of your product or services and cache mechanism and are looking forward to AWS.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
In storage and improvement of our services, the AWS CloudFront service is really handy. CloudFront provides API caching that can be static or dynamic, servable from various locations such as S3 bins, etc.
