This module enhances cache invalidation for sites hosted on Acquia Cloud, allowing for longer cache expiration times to improve site performance and resilience. It integrates with the purge cache invalidation framework to offer a straightforward setup.
Top-notch cache invalidation on Acquia Cloud!
The acquia_purge module invalidates cached content on Acquia Cloud and allows you to set Drupal's time to live (TTL) to a high value like a year. This makes your site more resilient, the stack do less work and improves the performance of your site dramatically!
When do I need this?
We recommend nearly all Acquia customers to set this up, but especially if any of this sounds familiar:
- Traffic spikes quickly take down your site.
- Pages are often slow and take more than 2-3 seconds to load.
- Your site is constantly dealing with slow queries or other heavy processing.
What time does it take?
The acquia_purge module works on top of the purge cache invalidation framework and offers a turn-key experience.
Setting it up shouldn't take more then 15 minutes, see the installation instructions.
Drupal 7
Owners of Drupal 7 sites are advised to schedule at least one day of testing and tuning to ensure that every section of their site is covered, as the expire module won't cover everything and requires you to set up rules for missing coverage areas. See its README, installation instructions and especially its domains documentation.
