Code deployment and cache clearing

Clearing the entire object cache or page cache for a site can negatively effect the site’s performance, particularly during a high traffic event. For this reason, when a code deployment occurs only a select group of cache clearing events will occur:

• Code deployment to a WordPress environment will not cause the object cache to be flushed.
• Code deployment to a Node.js or WordPress environment will not clear the page cache for a site’s cached content responses.
• Code deployment will cause the cache to be cleared for any static asset files that exist within the environment’s deploying branch and the deployment included updated versions of those files.
