Boost LP SPEED with DNS ? Amazon S3 ? or Amazon EC2? (4)
Hi
We have use amazon S3 , for past few month , switch from MaxCDN ( I am not sure its a right move for speed up lp)
I am wondering which service can speed up lander the most cost effective way ? I run pop traffic where need a lot of data , heard some says use EC2, any suggestion ?
Use CDN,Amazon S3, or Amazon EC2 ? Or combination of these services ? like place image at CDN and others host at Amazon S3 ?
Will be really appreciate if someone can let me know how to set up or have any contact that can PM me
Thank-you
You need to categorise these services properly - the are different.
Servers:
Amazon EC2
File storage:
Amazon S3
Content Delivery Networks:
MaxCDN
Amazon Cloudfront
DNS:
Amazon Route 53
DNSMadeEasy
NSOne
etc.
The CDN has the largest impact on performance if all you are doing is serving static HTML files. You could upload these files to the CDN directly through their system, or have the CDN mapped over another domain that points to a server, or file storage like S3, so it then pulls from that instead.
If you don't need a server and file storage of e.g. html, css, js, image files is all that is required, S3 makes a lot more sense.
The CDN in front that is pulling from it matters more.
The DNS system you are using is largely unimportant.
TL;DR: Use Amazon S3 to store your content then configure Amazon CloudFront to use your S3 'bucket' as the origin for a distribution, then use that distribution address for landers (abcdefgh.cloudfront.net).
great overview as always, zeno 
once server side stuff (PHP etc.) is used, Amazon EC2 (or similar offers) are needed, correct? and then combined with Amazon S3?
