Amazon CloudFront Reviews & Product Details - Page 2

Cloudfront is the first CDN wr used, and we never felt the need to switch back over to any other provider. Cost is naturally one of the main considerations when using cdns on sites with heavy traffic, lots of hits/access etc and Amazon Cloudfront is by far one of the most affordable solutions out there.

Other things I loved - the Lightsail version of Cloudfront (same as CF, but a super easy interface) is one of the easiest to use and set up and works just as efficiently as regular CF.

Their ability to serve protected downloads via their system (through private keys on one's server) is another superlative feature - integrated with many an other software solution which just increases the robustness of the service.

Cannot say enough good things about Cloudfront! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Their interface is complex to use (regular CF, not Lightsail) - they could make that easier to use for non technically inclined folks. Their documentation is pretty extensive tho, so I'm not really sure if that's a "negative" but it's by far the only one I can think of - if at all! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great way to speed up websites etc by serving static objects and digital downloads through Amazons extensive cloud server base globally. Site load times can drasticslly improve by using Cloudfront to serve images and other static "objects" (such as digital products sold through ones site as we used it for) as opposed to serving them directly off the server.

Extremely complex and not an intuitive system to use at all for the layperson. That said, their documentation is very extensive but again, the general layout and interface might could be made a lot easier to use for non technical minded folks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Amazon CloudFront, We have used it to host all the front end in the S3 bucket to serve. Integration was easy and quick which made to frequently use it. Fews of the Cons -

1) Features to reduce cost such as caching.

2) Faster loading of website which improves experience.

3) Better security with DDoS protection and SSL/TLS Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Amazon CloudFront has a number of features that are quite tricky for beginners I have faced an HTTP 443 kind of error so troubleshooting those errors happens to be a pain. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AWS CloudFront is a strong, easy-to-use, CDN platform for delivering your website and content worldwide. We use CloudFront in front of our website to gain better performance on non-US locations and add an extra security layer before the website. CloudFront supports several configurations for the same origin, such as defining different caching or cookie strategies for different URLs or based on different cookies.

We could not find a way to do a rolled cache clearing and preemptive caching, which is important for high-traffic websites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like all the services of AWS and 4 years ago I learned about cloud computing and virtualization. When I search for these topics in detail most of the topics related to AWS and its cloud service include its network infrastructure, cloud services, storage, and computing service. After reading these things, I decided to learn all AWS services in Deep, and Now ALHAMDULILLAH I have 3 to 4 years of experience in AWS and I am certified in the most important courses of Amazon e.g. Intro to DevOps, DevOps on AWS: Code, Build & Test, AWS Cloud Technical Essential, Launch an Auto-Scaling AWS EC2 Instance VM, Exam Prep: AWS Certified Solution Architecture- Associate, AWS Certified DevOps Engineer (DOP-C02) and some other also and Now I wish to become Amazon team member as Amazon Partner.

Nothing Else...

AWS Cloud services are really wonderful as compared to other competitors e.g. Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Connecting this to my S3 buckets was relatively painless, even though I'm not an experienced systems admin. There was no additional cost, since we simply paid for CloudFront transfers instead of S3 transfers. And speed is good if not blazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm not sure that the speed gains were as dramatic as I might hope for, and my impression is that for content hosted off S3 the integration is a little more involved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of using this service, wide locations for low latency static data serving, effective pricing, and at last the ease of managing static data with AWS storage services are just Charry on top. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Till now nothing much, price is bit higher. That's all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Website and API acceleration is what I mainly love about it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing specific that I dislike about this service, all the things have been working out for me so far Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This is so impactful when it comes to a global website. The users will be able to access your website fastly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As of now, I don't have any dislikes with cloudfront. My requirements are completely fullfilled. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
