About Amazon CloudFront

Amazon CloudFront is a content delivery network (CDN) that distributes web content to users through a global network of edge locations.

CloudFront caches and delivers static and dynamic content—including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, images, video, and API responses—from edge locations close to end users, reducing latency and load on origin servers. It is built for developers and organizations that need to serve web applications, APIs, or media at scale with configurable cache policies, access controls, and origin configurations.

Where to start

Developers can start by creating a CloudFront distribution in the AWS Console or via the API, pointing it to an origin such as an S3 bucket or HTTP server. The JavaScript SDK client provides full API access for managing distributions, cache policies, and related resources programmatically.
