  I agree with fny's comment, and add that most "application servers" don't bother with things like supporting sendfile(2); e.g. when hosting a Python application, you need to add something like Whitenoise, and integrate it with your application somehow; that's extra development work that is sometimes easier to throw over the fence at the sysadmin (especially since the sysadmin will usually already have that part of their job automated).

  I'd also say that there is no such thing as a "general case"; I've launched and/or supported countless (must be hundreds?) of web projects and even the "simple" ones were each a bit of a snowflake.

  We’ll use this library to serve our static admin files. I’m not going to go over all the configuration details here, but you can feel free follow them on your own. Make sure the static files are part of the Lambda package.

  3) Caching static assets - both of static assets. So maybe try deploying a Django app in a production environment and cache the static assets. You could put them behind a service like Cloudflare which will take care of that for you, or have a look at something like [Whitenoise](https://github.com/evansd/whitenoise) which will add the correct HTTP headers for you. You can spend some time reading about HTTP Caching headers and even try writing a simple middleware which caches certain requests to your Django app (just for learning purposes).

• Serving Static files from AWS S3 Issue

  FWIW, I always use Whitenoise to serve Static files when I use Heroku, and only keep Media files on AWS. It works well.

  In the beginning of the project, I chose Google Cloud Platform as the "Cloud Provider". But for simplicity and easy to use I switched to WhiteNoise to serve staticfiles.
