I was wondering if hosting at github (aka GitHub Pages) was considered for this? I've done some sites with this in the past and was quite simple to set up:

1. create a geotools.github.io repository to drop in all the files to
   be hosted
2. add a CNAME file to that repo with "docs.geotools.org"
3. set up GitHub Pages on that repo
4. update DNS for "docs.geotools.org" (essentially change the current
   CNAME record for docs.geotools.org to geotools.github.io

see also https://help.github.com/en/github/working-with-github-pages/managing-a-custom-domain-for-your-github-pages-site

Github provides loadbalanced/cloud hosting + https
