CloudFront Distribution Does Not Have Origin Failover Configured

Overview

This check verifies the presence of an origin group in an Amazon CloudFront distribution that comprises a minimum of two origins.

The utilization of CloudFront origin failover can enhance availability. Origin failover operates by automatically rerouting traffic to a secondary origin when the primary origin is inaccessible or when it returns particular HTTP response status codes.
