DeleteFileCache

Deletes an Amazon File Cache resource. After deletion, the cache no longer exists, and its data is gone.

The DeleteFileCache operation returns while the cache has the DELETING status. You can check the cache deletion status by calling the DescribeFileCaches operation, which returns a list of caches in your account. If you pass the cache ID for a deleted cache, the DescribeFileCaches operation returns a FileCacheNotFound error.

Important

The data in a deleted cache is also deleted and can't be recovered by any means.
