Deletes an Amazon File Cache resource

Description

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

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

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