Understanding server architecture: Delivering content from AWS S3 using Nginx reverse-proxy or Apache server
apache,amazon-web-services,nginx,amazon-s3
Does setting Access Control Level to S3 bucket to ALL_USERS ( to authenticated and anonymous users) compromise on data privacy? Absolutely. Don't do it. If I use reverse proxy, there is no way for the user to determine S3 bucket urls. Is the data safe and private? Theoretically, they...
