Automate CloudFront Invalidation via Slack

2024-10-25T10:03:51+00:00

In today's digital age where most people are using gadgets, we're likely familiar with the term "cache". Most of us first hear about cache when looking to free up storage or improve performance on our mobile devices especially for android users. If we look at our device's settings then navigate to the storage of an application, we will see two options: one is to delete the app entirely, and the other one is to clear its cache. Of course if you're still using your application, you'll click the second option. And after it, voila! Your application seems to run smoother. [...]

Basics of the Basics to AWS – Part 4: Network

2024-05-29T01:17:13+00:00

Cloud Service Providers, such as AWS, use various networking features to power its cloud computing platform. Having foundational computer networking knowledge will certainly come handy to properly configure your cloud applications and systems. It's important to know about the basics such as the 7 layers of the Open System Intercommunication (OSI) Model and Domain Name System (DNS) but fortunately, AWS makes some parts of networking easier for us. Welcome to part 5 of my 6-part series called Basics of the Basics to AWS, where I introduce you to AWS by breaking it down into smaller digestible concepts related to software [...]

Validate Referrer Headers Using CloudFront Function

2024-04-11T01:58:29+00:00

Amazon CloudFront, a content delivery network (CDN), lets you distribute content with low latency and high data transfer speeds. One of its many features is the ability to create CloudFront functions, which are lightweight functions that can manipulate HTTP requests and responses. This article will discuss creating a CloudFront function to validate Referrer headers. Referrer Headers Referrer headers are an essential part of HTTP requests, as they indicate the webpage's address linked to the resource being requested. By validating these headers, you can add an extra layer of security to your application, preventing unauthorized access and protecting your resources from [...]

Release with a Pipeline: Continuous Delivery to AWS with GitHub Actions

2024-01-24T01:07:44+00:00

This is the final part of a three-part article about a Web Application Project from building a private infrastructure to building a deployment pipeline using AWS’ cloud-native continuous delivery service AWS CodePipeline, and now finalizing the infrastructure to be accessible in a public domain and building a pipeline for continuous deployment using a third-party CD tool – GitHub Actions. From the private infrastructure previously built, we will update the S3 policy to add a statement for an allowed action for the CloudFront resource. As best practice, this statement will be added to the Terraform script of the infrastructure to make it [...]

Building a Deployment Pipeline for a React Application with AWS CodePipeline

2024-01-07T02:48:10+00:00

This is the second part of a series of blogs about the platform management of a React Application infrastructure by adding a continuous deployment component to the earlier infrastructure. In an earlier article, I wrote about how a private react application infrastructure can be deployed with Terraform code. Now, we will explore this further by building a deployment pipeline using AWS CodePipeline. Let's assume that the source code of the React web application is hosted on GitHub. Using the GitHub connections feature of AWS CodePipeline, we can authorize the third-party provider to work with AWS resources to establish integration between [...]

Leveraging Amazon CloudFront with S3 and Route 53 for Subdomain Configuration

2023-11-20T06:14:26+00:00

Amazon S3 and Route 53, both provided by AWS, offer a comprehensive solution for managing and deploying web content. Route 53 allows you to create alias records that direct to the website endpoint of your S3 bucket. Meanwhile, Amazon S3 is a robust service for hosting static websites. These services, when used together, provide a powerful toolset for web content management. However, there's a key requirement when using these services together: the bucket name in S3 must be the same as the domain or subdomain hosted on Route 53. This is because when a request comes to Route 53, it [...]

Cloudfront Function URL Demo

2023-10-03T19:03:42+00:00

In this article, we will guide you through the process of setting up a CloudFront Function for your CloudFront distribution. We'll walk you through a scenario where we use CloudFront Functions to redirect users to different content based on their device type. By the end of this guide, you'll gain a clear understanding of how CloudFront Functions can benefit your specific use case. Creating an S3  Bucket This bucket will simply serve as a mock origin for the CloudFront distribution that we'll be creating. If you have some test buckets lying around, you may use them instead and skip this [...]

CloudFront Function URL

2023-07-10T21:58:49+00:00

Introduction CloudFront Functions is a feature of Amazon CloudFront that enables developers to deploy and run lightweight JavaScript functions at AWS’s global edge locations closer to the end-users. This functionality facilitates high scalability and low latency and simplifies operations by allowing developers to run code that customizes the content delivered through CloudFront.  When to Use CloudFront Functions?  CloudFront Functions is ideal for simple tasks requiring high request rates and low latency.  These tasks can include a range of activities. Modifying Cache-keys: CloudFront allows you to change certain parts of your HTTP request (like the URL, headers, cookies, and query strings) [...]
