A five minute delay of cache clearing will be added to all non-authenticated Drupal paths (pages seen as a visitor). The update will be implemented on all EWPP sites from Monday 27 March to Tuesday 8 May.
Please consult the list of websites affected on each day in this pdf.

This change has two positive impacts:

• The overall security of Drupal infrastructure will be protected against DDOS attacks
• An improvement of performance by supporting highly visited content

Your site will remain available to visitors and editors. The change will only affect how quickly updated or new content is visible for visitors. Please be aware of the following:

• As an editor, your content change(s) will be published and available after a maximum of five minutes
• COMM EUROPA MANAGEMENT cannot expedite the five minutes delay by clearing the cache

Please note that the cache configuration has already been updated for all acceptance websites. Therefore, if you perform tests on your acceptance website, you will experience a maximum of five minutes delay for updates to become visible.

Please contact europamanagement@ec.europa.eu if you have any questions or concerns.
