You can add your CloudFront CDN in Read-Only mode to Flumotion Smart Multi CDN and use it for importing your configuration, monitoring, and traffic steering. To add CloudFront as one of your CDN providers, you need an AWS role that can be used with Flumotion Smart Multi CDN.
As part of creating the role, you need to generate a UUID to be used as an External ID. You can easily create this role using one of the following methods:
- Using CloudFormation – Use this quick-create link to create the Read-Only role.
- Using Terraform – Use this code to create the Read-Only role.
Once you have created the role, you should obtain the following information:
- RoleArn – The ID of the created role.
- External-Id – The UUID you generated and used when creating the role.
Save the created RoleArn and External-Id, and provide them to the Flumotion Smart Multi CDN support team to add your CloudFront CDN in Read-Only mode.
