FAQs

What is the difference between Load Balancing and Auto Scaling?

Load Balancing distributes incoming traffic evenly across multiple servers to prevent any single server from being overwhelmed. Auto Scaling, on the other hand, automatically adds or removes servers based on demand. Together, they ensure your Magento store stays fast and available during traffic spikes without wasting resources during quieter times.

AWS CloudFront is a global content delivery network (CDN) that caches images, scripts, and static files at edge locations closer to your users. For Magento 2, this means faster page loads, reduced server strain, and improved customer experience worldwide. Many B2B brands also use CloudFront with AWS WAF for added security at the edge.

The migration process typically includes:

  1. Assessing your current store setup (catalog size, traffic, integrations).
  2. Designing a right-sized AWS architecture.
  3. Setting up EC2, RDS, S3, CloudFront, and security configurations.
  4. Testing the environment with staging data.
  5. Migrating live data with minimal downtime.
  6. Validating performance and completing DNS cutover.


HumCommerce manages this process end-to-end, ensuring minimal downtime and no data loss during the move.
