CloudFront
Every CloudFront distribution with hit ratio, requests per hour, error rate and origin latency.
What this pane shows
Per-distribution metrics for the last 24 hours: cache hit ratio, requests per hour, error rate (4xx + 5xx), and origin latency. A trend line on each metric makes regressions easy to spot. Distributions failing to maintain a healthy hit ratio (which directly drives cost and origin load) are flagged.
Key use cases
- Catch a distribution whose hit ratio dropped after a cache-key change.
- Investigate why origin latency spiked during a deploy.
- Quantify how much origin traffic CloudFront is actually offloading.
- Audit error rates across customer-facing distributions.

Build notes
Stage 2 wiring (2026-04-28): distribution inventory live via lp-fetch.js (service cloudfront — global service, fetched in us-east-1); per- distribution sparklines via lpFetch.metrics() over CloudWatch GetMetricData (also us-east-1)
Mock-only at the moment — live-wiring tracked in the roadmap.
