Hi @Jagster
Actually, I don’t want to use a CDN at all—I just want all user uploads to be stored in S3 and served directly from there although CloudFront is trully a better solution than S3 directly.
My issue arose when I tried to set up S3 (specifically for serving assets, not uploads), and @pfaffman suggested I follow the Configure an S3 compatible object storage provider for uploads guide and configure a CDN.
Regarding your comment:
“You just can’t name a sub-domain only in app.yml. No one can’t use it without proper DNS info. And because serving your files happens from AWS you have to configure that side too, if you want to use CDN.”
I’m sorry, but I didn’t quite understand what you meant by this paragraph. Could you elaborate a bit more or clarify? Are you saying I need to configure DNS records for my S3 bucket or that there’s something specific I need to adjust on the AWS side?
Thanks in advance for your help!
