The more you use caching the less your files are downloaded from the S3 bucket. Bandwidth is money. So you can save money by setting a long age for your objets. 1- Set the property Cache-Control: Edit the file .gitlab-ci.yml, and add the property to your S3 command or like below to the dpl command $ dpl --skip_cleanup --provider=s3 --bucket=$S3_BUCKET --region=$AWS_REGION \ --cache-control='public, max-age=31536000' --local-dir=public/ 2- Clear cache of the CDN You have to got some tool to clear the cache on the CDN side otherwise your updates will be never seen :(
