<figure><img src="/files/G99Oixe93nRiz6qs4Nad" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Amazon CloudFront is one of the most popular CDN for various users since it is a part of Amazon Web Service. With the power of AWS data centers all around the world, CloudFront can provide static content faster than ever. It is also possible to apply an SSL certificate along with the CDN by using [Amazon Certificate Manager](https://aws.amazon.com/certificate-manager/?nc1=h_ls).

Go the AWS CloudFront console, and create a new distribution. You can go with a free tier for now if you are a beginner.

You'll be able to see a default `.cloudfront.net` domain that is allocated to your distribution. Make sure to check the connectivity of it to your website before you proceed.

Once you have confirmed the connectivity of the domain, go to the edit page of your CloudFront distribution, and set the CNAME and SSL certificate for it. Type the permanent domain you want to use for the website, and bind the correct SSL certificate for the domain. You can either import or issue a new SSL certificate through the [Amazon Certificate Manager](https://aws.amazon.com/certificate-manager/?nc1=h_ls).

Don't forget to set a CNAME record on your DNS with the CloudFront default domain name. (CNAME example.com <-> example.cloudfront.net.)

Please check that you are able to access your website with the permanent domain you've set on  CloudFront with the proper SSL encryption.
