EdgeCast Caching

The Edgecast module connects your Drupal site to the CDN so that when you edit content the CDN knows to update it's cache quicker than the standard expiry time you've defined (usually hours or days).

When used in conjunction with the Cache Expiration module you'll get support for Nodes, User profiles, comments and more. When used standalone it will purge the cache just for node updates.

If you're using a reverse proxy with your site such as Varnish or Squid it's important to ensure they are purged before the CDN is cleared otherwise Edgecast will just re-cache the reverse proxy copy of your pages which may still be out of date.
