Is there a way to invalidate a file when I delete it from an amazon s3 bucket in C# (CloudFront cache issue)?

Question

When I delete a file from amazon bucket through this:

s3.DeleteObject(object);

Is there a way to invalidate it to prevent the CloudFront cache problem?

Answer 1

This is a two step process. After deleting the object from S3, you will have to Invlidate the cache on CloudFront ( similar post ) using CreateInvalidationRequest() API call. CF keeps an object cached for 24hrs by default.
