Yes, we're using Contour - this is an old project and bumping the version is a bit of a leap.

We updated to Umbraco 7.4, and each of the servers were not being made aware of changes to forms within the Umbraco back office. This POC will distribute cache instructions to other servers which will clear the internal Umbraco Contour cache when a form is updated.
