CloudFront Custom Origin and Invalidations

A bunch of updates to the Ylastic CloudFront support. AWS recently added the ability to serve your content from an origin server that is not a S3 bucket. You can now use CloudFront as the CDN for files hosted on your own server. Here is a sample of how one would set up a custom origin server to serve the files hosted on the domain xanthe.us.

if you have an updated version of a file that is part of a distribution currently being served up by CloudFront, you have to ensure that the older version of the file is removed from the edge server cache before you upload a new version to the server. You do this by creating an invalidation request specifying the paths/files to expire. Do keep in mind that AWS limits the number of invalidations in progress at one time, as well as the number of free invalidations allowed per month.
