Is there any advantage to this over something like cloudflare pages?

• lifebeyondfife 5y ago
  Cloudflare Pages looks like a more productionised version of this, yes. In terms of advantages, I'd say price, and the maturity of using AWS. I deploy a static site with a GitHub Action (look at my other repo whisky-menu for how to do this) which builds a React app, copies it to S3, and invalidates the CloudFront cache.

    Price?... Cloudflare is completely Free, so surely it beats AWS on cost?

      You're correct, yes, I didn't realise how generous the free tier is. If you're doing fewer than 500 updates per month, Cloudflare looks good https://pages.cloudflare.com/ https://pages.cloudflare.com/ Because I have other resources and projects in AWS I'll keep this setup. It's so close to free that cost doesn't bother me.
