  3. Amazon CloudFront is a content delivery web service.
    I made the decision to not put CloudFront in front of this S3 Bucket, because this is a region specific website. Most people viewing this site live in the area and adding a CDN feels like unnecessary complexity given the use case. As a result, the site renders of HTTP rather than HTTPS.
