AWS CloudFront Not Updating












0















Whenever I make a change to my S3 bucket my CloudFront doesn't update to the new content. I have to create an invalidation every time in order to see the new content. Is there another way to make CloudFront load the new content whenever I push content to my S3 bucket?

          You have created the S3 origin with cache settings or you have added cache headers to your S3 bucket policy.



          If you check your browser request you can check on the cache headers and why it is getting cached.



          You can find a list of http cache headers and how they are used here



          Hope it helps.

            Cloudfront keeps cache at edge points for minimum of one hour.



            What you can do, as suggested by the docs, you can use versioned files.



            BUT :




            New versions of the files for the most popular pages might not be served for up to 24 hours because CloudFront might have retrieved the files for those pages just before you replaced the files with new versions




            So I guess your best bet is invalidation.



            EDIT: you can prevent the caching behaviour of versioned files if you change their names.

              Let me answer your questions inline.




              Whenever I make a change to my S3 bucket my CloudFront doesn't update
              to the new content. I have to create an invalidation every time in
              order to see the new content.




              Yes, this is the default behavior in CloudFront unless you have defined the TTL values to be zero (0).




              Is there another way to make CloudFront load the new content whenever
              I push content to my S3 bucket?




              You can automate the invalidation using AWS Lambda. To do this;




              1. Create an S3 event trigger to invoke a lambda function when you upload any new content to S3.

              2. Inside the Lambda function, write the code to invalidate the CloudFront distribution using AWS CloudFront SDK createInvalidation method.


              Note: Make sure the Lambda function has an IAM Role with policy permission to trigger an invalidation in CloudFront.
