cloudfront-auth VS terraform

If you already have existing users in google, github, or something like that, maybe look at this https://github.com/Widen/cloudfront-auth and skip cognito.

This article shows how to deploy your own EventCatalog in AWS CloudFront via Terraform and updates to the Catalog via CI/CD (CircleCi in this case, but can be easily applied to other CI systems). It also shows how to use Lambda@Edge to implement Google SSO / OpenID Connect via the Widen/cloudfront-auth Project.

Using it to allow Google Workspace auth access control to static websites. Leverages https://github.com/Widen/cloudfront-auth

aws.amazon.com Recognition The earlier AWS blog that investigated wiring up Cognito authentication with Lambda@Edge: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/networking-and-content-delivery/authorizationedge-how-to-use-lambdaedge-and-json-web-tokens-to-enhance-web-application-security/ A gist that shows how to add Basic Authentication using Lambda@Edge: https://gist.github.com/lmakarov/e5984ec16a76548ff2b278c06027f1a4 An open-source project that uses a similar approach to secure CloudFront distributions, but does not yet support Cognito (at the time of this writing): https://github.com/Widen/cloudfront-auth Additional resources Check out the code on GitHub to see how the sample solution is built. You can deploy and run the code yourself: https://github.com/aws-samples/cloudfront-authorization-at-edge. You can deploy the Amazon Cognito resources from the sample solution directly from the AWS Serverless Application Repository. 10

1) Make sure your bucket is private. 2) Set up CloudFront with Origin Access Identity 3) Use Lambda@Edge for authentication.

I am not only a big fan of hashicorp terraform. I'm also one of the early adopters of it. So this is my main go-to Infrastructure as a Code tool. However all the resources I use are supported by other IaaC solutions such as AWS CloudFormation and AWS CDK. You definitely got to use one to avoid loosing the track of resources you create.

State Encryption was one of those long requested features[0] (I had it on my ideas list for years[1]) that Hashicorp didn't have much incentive to build. I don't think it has to with distancing opentofu as such, but the opentofu team prioritizing the right things that customers actually need.

I’m not a lawyer and have no idea who is right or wrong but I understand why Hashicorp is scrutinizing this.

Just to give an example of the power of Go for CLI builds, you may have already used or at least heard of Docker, Kubernetes, Prometheus, Terraform, but what do they all have in common? They all have a large part of their usability via CLI and are developed in Go 🐿.

Each app’s front end is built with Qwik and uses Tailwind for styling. The server-side is powered by Qwik City (Qwik’s official meta-framework) and runs on Node.js hosted on a shared Linode VPS. The apps also use PM2 for process management and Caddy as a reverse proxy and SSL provisioner. The data is stored in a PostgreSQL database that also runs on a shared Linode VPS. The apps interact with the database using Drizzle, an Object-Relational Mapper (ORM) for JavaScript. The entire infrastructure for both apps is managed with Terraform using the Terraform Linode provider, which was new to me, but made provisioning and destroying infrastructure really fast and easy (once I learned how it all worked).

For example, integrating Terraform for infrastructure as code (IaC) into the IDP can streamline updates and rollbacks.

In this project, you will understand and get hands on experience around the entire concept around CI/CD from applications perspective. To fully gain real expertise around this idea, it is best to see it in action across different programming languages and from the platform perspective too. From the application perspective, we will be focusing on PHP here; there are more projects ahead that are based on Java, Node.js, .Net and Python. By the time you start working on Terraform, Docker and Kubernetes projects, you will get to see the platform perspective of CI/CD in action.

Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is an important part of any true hosting operation in the public cloud. Each of these platforms has their own IaC solution, e.g. AWS CloudFormation. But they also support popular open-source IaC tools like Pulumi or Terraform. A category of tools that also needs to be discussed is API gateways and other app-specific load balancers. There are applications for internal consumption, which can be called microservices if you have a lot of them. And often microservices use advanced networking options such as a service mesh instead of just the native private network offered by a VPC.
