AWS CloudFront is a content distribution service offered by AWS to speed up the distribution of static content, such as media files, html, js, css, etc. CloudFront can stream media files using the Adobe Real-Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP). It is required that the streams file is on AWS S3 and should not be served from any other origin. The user can stream the file using a JWPlayer, Adobe Flash player or flow player. The user can create a streaming distribution. The end user can view the streamed media file using the player specified by the user.

The AWS allows creating multiple streaming distributions for a single bucket and the user can stream the media objects using any of the valid streaming distributions.

The present guide demonstrates how to list, view or update an existing streaming distribution.

AWS CloudFront is a content distribution service offered by AWS to serve low latency content with high data speed. CloudFront caches the object to its edge location. The user can configure how long an object can stay in the cache. When creating a CloudFront download distribution, it allows the user to configure the caching behavior for the different path patterns: E.g. one cache behavior is for all .css files while the other is for all .jpg files. When a new distribution is created, CloudFront forwards all requests to the origin specified during the creation of the distribution. The user can add another caching behavior for a different path pattern.

The present guide demonstrates how to configure the cache behavior for a download distribution.

AWS Cloudfront is a content distribution service offered by AWS to speed up the distribution of static content, such as media files, html, js, css, etc. Cloudfront serves its content through edge locations. In Cloudfront, the content is organized into distributions. There are two types of distributions with CloudFront: (1) Download CloudFront  Distribution and (2) Streaming Distribution. When the user updates the configuration distribution, all the changes are propagated to all the edge locations. Until all the edge locations are updated with the changes, Cloudfront continues to serve the content from the previous distribution.

The present guide demonstrates how to view and update the existing Cloudfront download distribution.
