Amazon AWS Video Streaming

I am doing an app using Ionic where I need to allow the user to upload videos and eventually stream them. I want to use AWS to do that. Which AWS API should I use to do that? Should I use S3? How? I am little lost...

best option here is to:

  1. Implement a web interface which allows users to "post" their files.
  2. Files will be stored into an S3 Bucket
  3. Serve the streaming of the files over AWS Cloudfront. Cloudfront offers video streaming built-in functionalities (here is a tutorial for this https://aws.amazon.com/cloudfront/streaming/)

All in all, the 3 steps are rather easy and straight forward.

For sure you need to spend some time on it. It does not come for free (in life nothing comes for free :) )

I hope this helps
