Amazon Cloudfront is a CDN (Content Delivery Network) that caches static content such as HTML files, CSS, images, and videos, and delivers content instead of origin servers. AWS has over 400 edge locations, and using Amazon Cloudfront allows you to deliver content quickly from the edge location closest to your service users

If the origin server processes large files such as images and videos every time they are accessed, the load on the server increases. This makes it difficult to provide stable content delivery, which causes inconvenience to service users

By using Amazon Cloudfront, you can reduce the load on your servers while delivering stable content, creating a system that benefits both service providers and service users
