Using CloudFront as a Lightweight Proxy
In the last post, I explored using CloudFront Functions as a blazing fast API that ran on the edge. Since then, I've learned a lot more about CloudFront, SigV4 and Origin Access Control (OAC). This led me to some discoveries on how to use CloudFront as a lightweight proxy for S3 and Lambda. In this "loot drop", I'll detail how to use CloudFront to read and write directly to S3, create a url bookmark service and send PUT and POST requests to an IAM protected Lambda Function Url.
