About caching in Site Factory
To improve your website’s performance, Site Factory caches several files and webpages that make up your website using both Drupal caching (used directly by your website) and Varnish® caching (top-level cache used to increase general performance).
When a visitor views your website, if the webpage they request was previously served to a different visitor and is in a cache, Site Factory provides the webpage directly from the cache. This allows the visitor to see the page several times faster than if Site Factory had to prepare and send the page to the visitor from its source files. Since pages are served faster, caching enables more pages to be served to more visitors.
Site Factory caches the following data types relating to your website’s structure:
Site Factory allows you to clear your websites’ Drupal and Varnish caches, which causes any visitor requested webpages and files to be regenerated from the source files. Newly requested visitor items will then be placed in the cache for use with future visitors.
Clearing caches also refreshes the thumbnail images of your websites on the Factory interface, site collections, and groups webpages.
To clear your website’s Varnish and Drupal caches, you can use the Site Factory user interface, the Site Factory API, or a specially-formatted command from the command-line interface:
Sign in to the Site Factory Management Console, find the website for which you want to clear its caches, and then open its actions menu.
