How to setup a domain using S3 bucket

Question

Can someone help me to configure a website, i have purchased a domain from godaddy, i want to host the files from S3. Can someone help me?

Answer 1

The first thing you should notice and keep a track off is your subdomain name must be the same as the S3 bucket name.

Once you name a new bucket as per your Sub Domain naming convention, you will have S3 URL assigned to it that looks something like http://subdomain.domain.com.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com

Now Next thing you need to do is to host your domain and map your subdomain to the URL from above step. where a mapping the host "subdomain" to the address "subdomain.mydomain.com.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com" as a CNAME record.
