The other night I logged into the AWS web console, and upgraded my little S3 hosted site at https://apps.frickjack.com to http2 with TLS - which opens the door for adding a service worker to the site. As a side benefit the site is behind the CloudFront CDN. I also moved the domain's authoritative DNS to Route 53 earlier in the week - just to consolidate that functionality under AWS.
It's ridiculous how easy it was to do this upgrade - I should have done it a while ago:
- create the Cloud Front network
- configure the CDN with a certificate setup with the AWS Certificate Manager
- update DNS for the domain 'apps.frickjack.com' to reference the CDN hostname - Route53 supports an 'alias' mechanism that exposes an A record, but you can also just use a CNAME if you have another DNS provider
Anyway - this is fun stuff to play with, and my AWS bill will still be less than $2 a month.
