Migrate Cloudflare CDN configuration: Documentation asset delivery

Move CDN delivery from Cloudflare CDN configuration to Ample, one component at a time. Destination verified on Ample: HTML and CSS objects stored with their own content types and served from the CDN URL with those types intact. Source procedure: Record page rules, cache rules and the asset paths the app references. Not migrated automatically: Cloudflare cache rules, Workers, Transform Rules and tiered caching are not migrated; Ample verifies delivery of published bucket objects only. Cutover: Redeploy the app with the new asset base URL, verify delivery from the CDN URL, then retire the old cache rules. Rollback: keep the source untouched until you confirm; nothing at the source is changed or deleted by this guide.

Workflow Steps

  1. Inventory the source
    List what Cloudflare CDN configuration provides beyond the component you are moving. Out of scope here: Cloudflare cache rules, Workers, Transform Rules and tiered caching are not migrated; Ample verifies delivery of published bucket objects only.

  2. Source step 1
    Record page rules, cache rules and the asset paths the app references.

  3. Source step 2
    Copy the public assets into a published Ample bucket under versioned keys with immutable Cache-Control.

  4. Source step 3
    Update the app to build asset URLs from the Ample public URL.

  5. Publish the destination bucket
    Create and publish the asset bucket, upload versioned assets with immutable Cache-Control, and point the app at the public URL.

  6. Validate before cutover
    Run the app's own checks and, for data, compare counts and checksums; the example checks are the pattern self-tests (/p/documentation-asset-delivery).

  7. Cut over
    Redeploy the app with the new asset base URL, verify delivery from the CDN URL, then retire the old cache rules.

  8. Rollback
    Point DNS or configuration back to the source. The source was never modified; deletion is a separate, user-executed step after validation.
