Hello everyone! 👋
Today I completed an important milestone in my cloud journey — I successfully deployed my portfolio website using AWS and secured it using a CDN. 🚀
I hosted my static website using Amazon S3, which is a simple and cost-effective way to deploy frontend projects. It allows me to store and serve my HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files with high availability.
To improve performance and security, I integrated Amazon CloudFront. This helps deliver my website faster using global edge locations and also enables HTTPS for secure access. 🔐
🔧 What I did: Created an S3 bucket and uploaded my portfolio files Enabled static website hosting Configured permissions for public access Connected CloudFront to my S3 bucket Secured the website using HTTPS 💡 What I learned: How cloud storage works for hosting websites Importance of CDN for performance Basics of secure content delivery Real-world deployment workflow
This project gave me hands-on experience with cloud deployment and is a big step toward learning DevOps practices, where I’ll automate this process using CI/CD pipelines. My goal is to combine Cloud + DevOps + AI and share everything I learn along the way as I work toward becoming an AWS Community Builder.
More projects and improvements coming soon — including automating this deployment! 🔥

Tesla reclaims the quarterly EV crown from BYD, but the numbers tell a more complicated story
Tesla delivered 358,023 battery electric vehicles in the first quarter of 2026, edging past BYD’s 310,389 pure electric sales to reclaim the global quarterly BEV lead it surrendered across all of 2025. The margin, roughly 48,000 units, was enough for the headline. What it was not enough to do was silence the questions multiplying around [ ] This story continues at The Next Web
