Summary

In this chapter, we saw the different architectures in which an AngularJS app can be deployed on AWS Cloud.

We went through the details of deploying our app in a Server-less Architecture by making use of S3 and CloudFront. Finally, we saw how to get our app ready for production by concatenating and minifying our JS files and ensuring our app gets a high performance score.

While AWS's services have been available for production use for a long time, we can deploy our AngularJS app in a similar architecture on Rackspace Cloud files, Google App Engine, or even GitHub pages. Do explore these options and see which of them give you the best results in terms of performance and ease of use.
