Cloudformation-coverage-roadmap: AWS::CloudFront::Distribution-OriginGroups

[ericlackey]

Scope of Request

New attribute for an existing resource is desired

AWS::CloudFront::Distribution - Add support for using Origin Groups in CloudFront distributions.

Expected Behavior

You should be able to specify an OriginGroups attribute that allows for one or more OriginGroups where each OriginGroup references multiple Origin IDs on the distribution. It will need to support OriginGroup failover criteria and the ability to provide an ID for the OriginGroup.

You should then be able to map behavior rules to either an Origin or an OriginGroup.

We're are kind of stuck with deploying production infrastructure because of this feature not existing in cloudformation. We would like to have this feature ASAP, since all of our infrastructure is written in cloudformation which is the official AWS IaaC tool.

is there an estimate when this will be available.
It's quite a critical feature for us.

Is there an update as to when this feature will roll out?

@jverneuer I updated your comment here to remove Account IDs. Whilst not a major concern, it's a small part of your AWS Identity and you should avoid sharing it online. Also, coverage support is applied globally to all customers and account IDs are not used to whitelist customers for access.

I'm also waiting for this, in order to use AWS CDK to define CloudFront Origin Groups. https://github.com/aws/aws-cdk/issues/3295

When it will be released? Please give some estimate.

The reason is hasn't been deployed is that a couple of issues have been found late in the process, but it appears that they will be resolved soon. We are looking to release in the next 4 weeks or sooner.

The deployment of this was finished earlier today :)

Is this deployed in eu-west-2 at this time? I'm still getting [Encountered unsupported properties in {/DistributionConfig}: [OriginGroups]]
