I'm currently hosting my static website on a VM. I'd like to avoid being personally responsible for keeping the system secure, so I'm looking for a service that will host my static website; ideally on a CDN. Here are my requirements:
1) Content must be transmitted via https end-to-end.
2) Content must be served from custom domain
3) Support for directory indexes (show contents of index.html when an URL with trailing slash is accessed)
I thought this would be easy, but all services I've found seem to have some kind of drawback.
Amazon S3 + Cloudfront:
If I use Cloudfront with S3 buckets directly, there is no support for directory indexes. If I use Cloudfront with S3 website endpoints, the content is transferred only via http between S3 and cloudfront edge servers.
Rackspace cloudfiles:
If I understand their docs correctly, they don't support custom domains with SSL
DreamObjects + DreamSpeed:
Apparently doesn't support apex domains, and also doesn't support custom domains with SSL
Anybody know any other options?
Does this mean I need to continue to run my own VM just to serve a static website over SSL?
