Which AWS service is designed to enhance the delivery speed of static and dynamic web content?

Amazon CloudFront is specifically designed to enhance the delivery speed of both static and dynamic web content by utilizing a network of edge locations worldwide. As a content delivery network (CDN), CloudFront caches copies of your content closer to users, significantly reducing latency when they request files. This acceleration occurs due to its ability to leverage a global network of edge locations, which speeds up access to content by serving requests from the edge location that is geographically nearest to the user.

In addition to low-latency access, CloudFront can also distribute dynamic content efficiently by intelligently routing requests and connections to origin servers, whether they are hosted on Amazon S3, Amazon EC2, or any other hosting service. This makes it suitable for both static assets like images and CSS files, as well as dynamic content generated by applications.

This focus on performance improvement through proximity and intelligent routing distinguishes it from the other services listed. For example, while Amazon S3 is a storage service, it does not inherently optimize content delivery speed on its own. Amazon Route 53, although it provides DNS services that can assist with routing, does not directly enhance content delivery. Amazon EC2 is an infrastructure service designed for computing, but it does not specifically address the performance aspects of content delivery like
