How serving Ember apps from S3 and Cloudfront simplified dev environments, sped up builds and deploys, and made our production infrastructure smaller and more scalable

Gridium’s Tikkit application has three separate front-end Ember apps that all talk to a common API. Our application uses a microservices architecture; each of our apps runs in a Docker container. Initially, we set up our Ember apps the same way: an nginx-based Docker container that serves the app’s assets and proxies API calls to another containerized service.
