Hands-on: Using CloudFront Staging Distributions | StormIT

[@SzamBacsi]

This video was explained superbly! I was dealing with the same issue - setting up a staging site. The explanation was thorough and detailed, really appreciate it! My next step in my journey would be a staging environment for dynamic content (e.g Wordpress+Woocommerce)

problem is, my staging bucket has a /assets and when i load the site with the header it brings me this error: Failed to load module script: Expected a JavaScript module script but the server responded with a MIME type of "text/html". Strict MIME type checking is enforced for module scripts per HTML spec.

This is great, But with this way of implementation for testing my pre-production code with staging distribution, I might need to create new resources for each staging deployments, which is totally resource consuming. Do you have any suggestions, to re-use the resource and swap the code when we promote?

Hi, thank you for your comment, and I understand. What do you have set as the origin for the CloudFront distribution? We currently offer something called AWS Well-Architected, which can help answer these questions and provide an overall check against AWS best practices - www.stormit.cloud/aws-well-architected-review/.

Is there any better way to set cookies except the extension way? I am trying to access the staging environment via a link, it seems I have to use javascript to achive this :(

Hi, I don't exactly understand what you are trying to achieve. In this video, I demonstrate how to use header-based access to the CloudFront staging distribution. There are definitely many ways to set headers. I would need more information about your project. If you are interested, please contact us via this form for a consultation: www.stormit.cloud/contact/
