You're close!
Because an asset field can potentially contain multiple items you need to explicitly select the first one, so:
{% set video = component.video.one() %}
But that doesn't get the actual url of the video, to get that you need to request it:
{{ video.url() }}
So in your case:
{% set video = component.video.one() %}
{% if video %}
<video width=&...

Caveat: This is totally untested, and could be nonsense. I'm sure you'll let me know. It assumes that the Craft element query methods can be used here.
If you have a 'lang' value, add a where to your basic assets element query
{% set folderId = craft.app.request.getQueryParam('folderId') %}
{% set query = craft.app.request.getQueryParam('q') %}

Unlike other CMS (ahem WP), Craft doesn't hardcode URLs into the database and will build them up on-the-fly.
On the local dev server, you just need to set the base url (i.e. server name) of a volume to that of the ...

Specifically, the relatedTo parameter allows you to limit an asset query to assets that are used in a specific entry or set of entries. One caveat is that you have to load the entries which contain the assets field first (at least as far as I can ...

With the correct cache busting, files can remained cached for as long as possible. Craft handles a lot of this for you.
I typically cache items for a year but do take caution to ensure every reference to assets within the site has a cache busting string on it. It's important to note that Cloudfront needs to be setup to use these query strings.
