TIG MaxCDN for Magento 2

We created this extension to improve the workability of MaxCDN with Magento 2. At this point the moments at which MaxCDN's refreshes its servers are depended on them. They poll periodically if new files have been uploaded or download them upon request. This means that the first request is always slower than it could be.

  • But what if you change an already existing image or file?
  • What if you made changes to your JS- or CSS-code?

In these (or any other similar) scenario's, this means: if you forget to login to your MaxCDN-account and purge your pull zone(s) after you made changes to your codebase and/or filesystem, either your layout will break or your visitors are presented with outdated information.

You can imagine that it makes more sense to let Magento decide when the files on your MaxCDN pull zone are refreshed, instead of the other way around. This extension makes Magento 2 and MaxCDN work together, instead of separated from each other.

What does it do?

  • It purges all available pull zones in your account, when:
    • You press the 'Purge All Pull Zones'-button within the Cache Management-page, or
  • Whenever the following happens:
    • Flush Magento Cache,
    • Flush Cache Storage,
    • Flush Catalog Images Cache,
    • Flush JS/CSS Cache,
    • Upload a product image.

At this point this extension has only been tested on Magento 2.1.*, but we will make it compatible with more recent versions in upcoming releases.
