I have been working with Amazon products for several years, and my experience with them has been very positive. Currently, I am doing something else with Amazon products at my new company, where I focus on various services. In my work, I am dealing with Amazon CloudFront as part of my responsibilities.
My use case with Amazon CloudFront is as a CDN solution. It is used for distribution, as my customer told me they needed global delivery to reduce latency and distribution capabilities, so we suggested Amazon CloudFront.
My role demands me to create applications on Amazon using multiple Amazon services. This includes working on greenfield projects and migration projects. In the case of migration projects, if there are applications running on-premise, I have to design them on the cloud using compatible services like EC2, S3, CloudFront, and others.
The front end of most of our websites is by CloudFront. It works as a CDN. More than the CDN and the performance, we use Amazon CloudFront for its security. It frontends most of our sites, so we don't have to expose it directly.
We use Amazon CloudFront as a monitoring tool. It helps us receive notifications and alerts for any issues or experiences within AWS. Amazon CloudFront and CloudWatch allow us to monitor production servers and detect issues. Additionally, the tool's global access capabilities ensure users worldwide can access content without failure.
