Dont mean to be the negative Joe but you dont need a webserver if you're serving a static-able website.

I mean this is just basic stuff, for me it just sounds like a developer putting a site in production, no auto-scaling, patching ... might as well outsource this to a CDN since there is no database/redis/varnish ...

A CDN is just a web server somewhere else.

How are you supposed to _serve_ that static _web_site then?
