routing-traffic-with-route53-and-cloudfront
Configures Amazon Route 53 to route traffic to a CloudFront distribution using a custom domain. Use when setting up DNS alias records, alternate domain names (CNAMEs), ACM certificates for HTTPS, and IPv6 support for CloudFront.
Resumen
Routing Traffic with Route 53 and CloudFront
Overview
Domain expertise for configuring Amazon Route 53 to route traffic to Amazon CloudFront distributions using custom domain names. Covers hosted zone management, alias A/AAAA records, alternate domain name (CNAME) configuration, and ACM certificate setup for HTTPS.
Configure Route 53 to route traffic to a CloudFront distribution
To set up a custom domain for a CloudFront distribution with Route 53 DNS, follow the procedure exactly. See Route 53 CloudFront routing procedure.
The procedure covers:
- Verifying CloudFront distribution status and CNAME configuration
- Requesting and validating ACM certificates (must be in us-east-1)
- Creating or locating public hosted zones
- Creating alias A and AAAA records pointing to CloudFront
- Monitoring DNS propagation
Troubleshooting
Domain not in CloudFront CNAMEs
Add the domain as an alternate domain name in the CloudFront distribution configuration before creating Route 53 records.
SSL certificate issues
ACM certificates for CloudFront must be in us-east-1. Ensure the certificate is validated and associated with the distribution.
Private hosted zone
CloudFront only works with public hosted zones. Create a public hosted zone if only a private one exists.
DNS propagation delays
Changes typically propagate within 60 seconds but full global propagation can take up to 48 hours. Use nslookup or dig to verify.

- aws-iamawsProvides verified corrections for IAM behaviors that AI agents frequently get wrong — policy evaluation edge cases, trust policy gotchas, STS session limits, Organizations quirks, and SAML/MFA specifics. Also provides structured workflows for IAM role management and baseline policy generation from application source code or a Terraform plan JSON. Covers condition operator safety (ForAnyValue/ForAllValues with Null checks), bucket policy deny patterns (VPC endpoint restrictions, org paths), confused deputy protection, and service role creation for AWS services (Glue, CloudTrail, Lambda, ECS, etc.) with aws:SourceAccount/aws:SourceArn trust conditions. Applies when creating IAM roles, writing IAM or bucket policies, generating policies from application source code or a Terraform plan JSON, working with STS, Organizations, or condition operators, or any task needing a service or execution role. Does not cover non-IAM authorization like Cognito user-pool policies or app-level RBAC.9,200 instalaciones en skills.sh0
- aws-serverlessawsBuilds, deploys, manages, debugs, configures, and optimizes serverless applications on AWS using Lambda, API Gateway, Step Functions, EventBridge, and SAM/CDK. Covers cold starts, CORS debugging, event source mappings, troubleshooting, concurrency, SnapStart, Powertools, function URLs, EventBridge Scheduler, Lambda layers, and production readiness. Triggers on mentions of Lambda, API Gateway, Step Functions, SAM templates, CDK serverless stacks, DynamoDB stream triggers, SQS event sources, cold starts, timeouts, 502/504 errors, throttling, concurrency, CORS, Powertools, or any event-driven architecture on AWS, even without the word "serverless." Does not apply to EC2, ECS/Fargate containers, or Amplify hosting.9,000 instalaciones en skills.sh0
- aws-observabilityawsBuilds, configures, debugs, and optimizes AWS observability - operator-symptom questions and detecting Omni vs classic CloudWatch. CloudWatch on an already-reporting service: Log Insights, metric/composite/anomaly alarms, custom metrics/EMF, dashboards, X-Ray/ADOT tracing, canaries, CloudTrail, Dynamic Instrumentation (live breakpoints/snapshots), the Application Signals service map, and fleet health views. CloudWatch Omni on an existing Space: SQL over logs and traces, PromQL over metrics, Omni dashboards, Omni alerts, context graph for root cause, programmatic/IaC access (API/SDK/CLI/CloudFormation), driving Omni from a coding agent or skills, and evaluating AI agent quality from traces - on-demand and online scoring of live traffic, readback, custom evaluators. For first-time setup - creating an Omni Space, granting access, ingestion, or ADOT instrumentation for Application Signals (ServiceEvents, CI/CD metadata) or Omni - use setting-up-cloudwatch-observability. Not for app logging or threat detection.8,900 instalaciones en skills.sh0
- aws-cdkawsAuthors, deploys, and troubleshoots AWS infrastructure using CDK with TypeScript or Python. Covers best practices, stack architecture, and construct patterns. Applies when writing CDK constructs, bootstrapping environments, running cdk deploy/synth/diff, fixing CDK or CloudFormation errors, planning stack structure, importing existing resources, resolving drift, or refactoring stacks without resource replacement.8,400 instalaciones en skills.sh0
- aws-containersawsBuilds and deploys containerized workloads on Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), Elastic Container Service (ECS), Fargate, and ECR (Elastic Container Registry). Covers general EKS knowledge, Karpenter, AWS Load Balancer Controller and leveraging various open source Kubernetes projects with EKS. Covers general ECS knowledge, task definitions, Fargate services, ECS Exec, ECS Express Mode and ECS Managed Instances. Covers general Elastic Beanstalk knowledge, Elastic Beanstalk configuration and platforms supported by Elastic Beanstalk. Covers general ECR knowledge, ECR repository setup and lifecycle policies. Includes recommending, enabling, and reading Amazon ECS Action Logs to troubleshoot control-plane failures (deployment rollback/circuit-breaker, task placement, scaling, task replacement). Applies when deploying, debugging, or optimizing containers on AWS. Should be used instead of relying on internal knowledge for these services.8,300 instalaciones en skills.sh0
