 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Added
+- **EC2 Region Detection & Cost Optimization**
+  - Automatic detection of EC2 instance region using IMDSv2
+  - Warns when EC2 region ≠ S3 client region (potential cross-region charges)
+  - Different warnings for auto-detected vs. explicit `--region` flag mismatches
+  - Green checkmark when regions are aligned (optimal configuration)
+  - Can be disabled with `DG_DISABLE_EC2_DETECTION=true` environment variable
+  - Helps users optimize for cost and performance before migration starts
+- **New CLI Command**: `deltaglider migrate` for S3-to-S3 bucket migration with compression
+  - Supports resume capability (skips already migrated files)
+  - Real-time progress tracking with file count and statistics
+  - Interactive confirmation prompt (use `--yes` to skip)
+  - Prefix preservation by default (use `--no-preserve-prefix` to disable)
+  - Dry run mode with `--dry-run` flag
+  - Include/exclude pattern filtering
+  - Shows compression statistics after migration
+  - **EC2-aware region logging**: Detects EC2 instance and warns about cross-region charges
+  - **FIXED**: Now correctly preserves original filenames during migration
+- **S3-to-S3 Recursive Copy**: `deltaglider cp -r s3://source/ s3://dest/` now supported
+  - Automatically uses migration functionality with prefix preservation
+  - Applies delta compression during transfer
+  - Preserves original filenames correctly
+- **Version Command**: Added `--version` flag to show deltaglider version
+  - Usage: `deltaglider --version`
+- **DeltaService API Enhancement**: Added `override_name` parameter to `put()` method
+  - Allows specifying destination filename independently of source filesystem path
+  - Enables proper S3-to-S3 transfers without filesystem renaming tricks
+
+### Fixed
+- **Critical**: S3-to-S3 migration now preserves original filenames
+  - Previously created files with temp names like `tmp1b9cpdsn.zip`
+  - Now correctly uses original filenames from source S3 keys
+  - Fixed by adding `override_name` parameter to `DeltaService.put()`
+- **CLI Region Support**: `--region` flag now properly passes region to boto3 client
+  - Previously only set environment variable, relied on boto3 auto-detection
+  - Now explicitly passes `region_name` to `boto3.client()` via `boto3_kwargs`
+  - Ensures consistent behavior with `DeltaGliderClient` SDK
+
+### Changed
+- Recursive S3-to-S3 copy operations now preserve source prefix structure by default
+- Migration operations show formatted output with source and destination paths
+
+### Documentation
+- Added comprehensive migration guide in README.md
+- Updated CLI reference with migrate command examples
+- Added prefix preservation behavior documentation
+
+## [5.1.1] - 2025-01-10
+
+### Fixed

+  - Fixed handling of orphaned reference.bin files (reference files with no delta files)
+  - Added prominent warnings for orphaned reference files with cleanup commands
+  - Fixed stats for buckets with no compression (now shows 0% instead of negative)
+  - SHA1 checksum files are now properly included in calculations
+
+### Improved
+- **Stats Performance**: Optimized metadata fetching with parallel requests
+  - 5-10x faster for buckets with many delta files

+
+# Migrate a prefix (preserves prefix structure by default)

+deltaglider migrate --yes s3://old/ s3://new/
+
+# Exclude certain file patterns
+deltaglider migrate --exclude "*.log" s3://old/ s3://new/
+```
+
+**Key Features:**
+- **Resume Support**: Migration automatically skips files that already exist in the destination
+- **Progress Tracking**: Shows real-time migration progress and statistics
+- **Safety First**: Interactive confirmation shows file count before starting
+- **EC2 Cost Optimization**: Automatically detects EC2 instance region and warns about cross-region charges
+  - ✅ Green checkmark when regions align (no extra charges)
+  - ℹ️ INFO when auto-detected mismatch (suggests optimal region)
+  - ⚠️ WARNING when user explicitly set wrong `--region` (expect data transfer costs)
+  - Disable with `DG_DISABLE_EC2_DETECTION=true` if needed
+- **AWS Region Transparency**: Displays the actual AWS region being used
+- **Prefix Preservation**: By default, source prefix is preserved in destination (use `--no-preserve-prefix` to disable)
+- **S3-to-S3 Transfer**: Both regular S3 and DeltaGlider buckets supported
+
+**Prefix Preservation Examples:**
+- `s3://src/data/` → `s3://dest/` creates `s3://dest/data/`
+- `s3://src/a/b/c/` → `s3://dest/x/` creates `s3://dest/x/c/`
+- Use `--no-preserve-prefix` to place files directly in destination without the source prefix
+
+The migration preserves all file names and structure while applying DeltaGlider's compression transparently.

 ## Production Ready
 
 - ✅ **Battle tested**: 200K+ files in production
 - ✅ **Data integrity**: SHA256 verification on every operation
+- ✅ **Cost optimization**: Automatic EC2 region detection warns about cross-region charges - [📖 EC2 Detection Guide](docs/EC2_REGION_DETECTION.md)
 - ✅ **S3 compatible**: Works with AWS, MinIO, Cloudflare R2, etc.

+# Cache Management for Long-Running Applications
+
+## Overview
+
+DeltaGlider uses caching to store reference files locally for efficient delta compression. However, unlike the CLI which automatically cleans up cache on exit, **programmatic SDK usage requires manual cache management** for long-running applications.
+
+This guide explains how to manage cache in production applications, including:
+- When and how to clear cache
+- Encryption key management strategies
+- Memory vs. filesystem cache trade-offs
+- Best practices for different application types
+
+## The Problem
+
+**CLI (Automatic Cleanup)**:
+```bash
+# Cache created in /tmp/deltaglider-xyz123/
+deltaglider cp file.zip s3://bucket/
+
+# Process exits → Cache automatically deleted via atexit handler
+# ✅ No manual cleanup needed
+```
+
+**SDK (Manual Cleanup Required)**:
+```python
+from deltaglider import create_client
+
+client = create_client()
+
+# Long-running application (runs for hours/days)
+while True:
+    client.put_object(Bucket='releases', Key='file.zip', Body=data)
+    time.sleep(600)  # Upload every 10 minutes
+
+# ❌ Process never exits → Cache never cleaned
+# ❌ Cache grows indefinitely
+# ❌ Memory/disk exhaustion after days/weeks
+```
+
+## Solution: Manual Cache Management
+
+### Basic Cache Clearing
+
+```python
+from deltaglider import create_client
+
+client = create_client()
+
+# Do some uploads
+client.put_object(Bucket='releases', Key='file1.zip', Body=data1)
+client.put_object(Bucket='releases', Key='file2.zip', Body=data2)
+
+# Clear cache to free resources
+client.clear_cache()
+
+# ✅ All cached references removed
+# ✅ Memory/disk freed
+# ✅ Next upload will fetch fresh reference from S3
+```
+
+### When to Clear Cache
+
+| Scenario | Frequency | Reason |
+|----------|-----------|--------|
+| **Long-running services** | Every 1-4 hours | Prevent memory/disk growth |
+| **After config changes** | Immediately | Old cache is invalid |
+| **High memory pressure** | As needed | Free resources |
+| **Test cleanup** | After each test | Ensure clean state |
+| **Scheduled jobs** | After job completes | Clean up before next run |
+| **Key rotation** | After rotation | Old encrypted cache unusable |
+
+## Cache Strategies by Application Type
+
+### 1. Long-Running Background Service
+
+**Scenario**: Continuous upload service running 24/7
+
+```python
+from deltaglider import create_client
+import schedule
+import time
+import logging
+
+logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
+
+client = create_client()
+
+def upload_task():
+    """Upload latest build."""
+    try:
+        with open('latest-build.zip', 'rb') as f:
+            response = client.put_object(
+                Bucket='releases',
+                Key=f'builds/{datetime.now().isoformat()}.zip',
+                Body=f
+            )
+        logger.info(f"Uploaded: {response['ETag']}")
+    except Exception as e:
+        logger.error(f"Upload failed: {e}")
+
+def cleanup_task():
+    """Clear cache to prevent growth."""
+    client.clear_cache()
+    logger.info("Cache cleared - freed resources")
+
+# Upload every 10 minutes
+schedule.every(10).minutes.do(upload_task)
+
+# Clear cache every 2 hours (balance performance vs. memory)
+schedule.every(2).hours.do(cleanup_task)
+
+# Run indefinitely
+while True:
+    schedule.run_pending()
+    time.sleep(60)
+```
+
+**Cache Clearing Frequency Guidelines**:
+- Every 1 hour: High upload frequency (>100/day), memory-constrained
+- Every 2-4 hours: Moderate upload frequency (10-100/day), normal memory
+- Every 6-12 hours: Low upload frequency (<10/day), abundant memory
+
+### 2. Periodic Batch Job
+
+**Scenario**: Daily backup script
+
+```python
+from deltaglider import create_client
+import glob
+from pathlib import Path
+
+def daily_backup():
+    """Upload daily backups and clean up."""
+    client = create_client()
+
+    try:
+        # Upload all backup files
+        for backup in glob.glob('/backups/*.zip'):
+            with open(backup, 'rb') as f:
+                client.put_object(
+                    Bucket='backups',
+                    Key=f'daily/{Path(backup).name}',
+                    Body=f
+                )
+            print(f"Backed up: {backup}")
+
+    finally:
+        # ALWAYS clear cache at end of job
+        client.clear_cache()
+        print("Cache cleared - job complete")
+
+# Run daily via cron/systemd timer
+if __name__ == '__main__':
+    daily_backup()
+```
+
+**Best Practice**: Always clear cache in `finally` block to ensure cleanup even if job fails.
+
+### 3. Web Application / API Server
+
+**Scenario**: Flask/FastAPI app with upload endpoints
+
+```python
+from fastapi import FastAPI, UploadFile, BackgroundTasks
+from deltaglider import create_client
+import asyncio
+
+app = FastAPI()
+
+# Create client once at startup
+client = create_client()
+
+async def periodic_cache_cleanup():
+    """Background task to clear cache periodically."""
+    while True:
+        await asyncio.sleep(3600)  # Every hour
+        client.clear_cache()
+        print("Cache cleared in background")
+
+@app.on_event("startup")
+async def startup_event():
+    """Start background cache cleanup task."""
+    asyncio.create_task(periodic_cache_cleanup())
+
+@app.post("/upload")
+async def upload_file(file: UploadFile):
+    """Upload endpoint with automatic cache management."""
+    content = await file.read()
+
+    response = client.put_object(
+        Bucket='uploads',
+        Key=f'files/{file.filename}',
+        Body=content
+    )
+
+    return {"message": "Uploaded", "etag": response['ETag']}
+
+@app.post("/admin/clear-cache")
+async def admin_clear_cache():
+    """Manual cache clear endpoint for admin."""
+    client.clear_cache()
+    return {"message": "Cache cleared"}
+```
+
+**Best Practice**: Run periodic cache cleanup in background task, provide manual clear endpoint for emergencies.
+
+### 4. Testing / CI/CD
+
+**Scenario**: Test suite using DeltaGlider
+
+```python
+import pytest
+from deltaglider import create_client
+
+@pytest.fixture
+def deltaglider_client():
+    """Provide clean client for each test."""
+    client = create_client()
+    yield client
+    # ALWAYS clear cache after test
+    client.clear_cache()
+
+def test_upload(deltaglider_client):
+    """Test upload with automatic cleanup."""
+    response = deltaglider_client.put_object(
+        Bucket='test-bucket',
+        Key='test-file.zip',
+        Body=b'test data'
+    )
+    assert response['ETag'] is not None
+    # Cache automatically cleared by fixture
+
+def test_download(deltaglider_client):
+    """Test download with clean cache."""
+    # Cache is clean from previous test
+    deltaglider_client.put_object(Bucket='test', Key='file.zip', Body=b'data')
+    response = deltaglider_client.get_object(Bucket='test', Key='file.zip')
+    assert response['Body'].read() == b'data'
+    # Cache automatically cleared by fixture
+```
+
+**Best Practice**: Use pytest fixtures to ensure cache is cleared after each test.
+
+### 5. AWS Lambda / Serverless
+
+**Scenario**: Lambda function with warm container reuse
+
+```python
+import os
+from deltaglider import create_client
+
+# Initialize client outside handler (reused across invocations)
+client = create_client()
+
+# Track invocation count for cache clearing
+invocation_count = 0
+
+def lambda_handler(event, context):
+    """Lambda handler with periodic cache clearing."""
+    global invocation_count
+    invocation_count += 1
+
+    try:
+        # Upload file
+        response = client.put_object(
+            Bucket='lambda-uploads',
+            Key=event['filename'],
+            Body=event['data']
+        )
+
+        # Clear cache every 50 invocations (warm container optimization)
+        if invocation_count % 50 == 0:
+            client.clear_cache()
+            print(f"Cache cleared after {invocation_count} invocations")
+
+        return {'statusCode': 200, 'etag': response['ETag']}
+
+    except Exception as e:
+        # Clear cache on error to prevent poisoned state
+        client.clear_cache()
+        return {'statusCode': 500, 'error': str(e)}
+```
+
+**Best Practice**: Clear cache periodically (every N invocations) and on errors. Lambda warm containers can reuse cache across invocations for performance.
+
+## Encryption Key Management
+
+DeltaGlider always encrypts cache data. Understanding key management is critical for programmatic usage.
+
+### Ephemeral Keys (Default - Recommended)
+
+**How It Works**:
+- New encryption key generated per client instance
+- Cache encrypted with instance-specific key
+- Key lost when client is garbage collected
+- **Maximum security** - keys never persist
+
+**When to Use**:
+- Single-process applications
+- Short-lived scripts
+- CI/CD pipelines
+- Testing
+- Maximum security requirements
+
+**Example**:
+```python
+from deltaglider import create_client
+
+# Create client (generates ephemeral key automatically)
+client = create_client()
+
+# Upload file (encrypted with ephemeral key)
+client.put_object(Bucket='bucket', Key='file.zip', Body=data)
+
+# Clear cache
+client.clear_cache()
+
+# ✅ Encrypted cache cleared
+# ✅ Key was never persisted
+# ✅ Perfect forward secrecy
+```
+
+**Characteristics**:
+- ✅ Maximum security (keys never leave process)
+- ✅ Perfect forward secrecy
+- ✅ No key management overhead
+- ❌ Cache not shareable between processes
+- ❌ Cache not reusable after client recreation
+
+### Persistent Keys (Advanced - Shared Cache)
+
+**How It Works**:
+- Use same encryption key across multiple processes/clients
+- Key stored in environment variable or secrets manager
+- All processes can read each other's encrypted cache
+- **Trade-off**: Convenience vs. security
+
+**When to Use**:
+- Multi-process applications (workers, replicas)
+- Shared cache across containers
+- Cache persistence across application restarts
+- Horizontal scaling scenarios
+
+**Example - Environment Variable**:
+```python
+import os
+from cryptography.fernet import Fernet
+import base64
+
+# Generate persistent key (do this ONCE, securely)
+key = Fernet.generate_key()
+key_b64 = base64.b64encode(key).decode('utf-8')
+print(f"DG_CACHE_ENCRYPTION_KEY={key_b64}")  # Store in secrets manager!
+
+# Set in environment (or use secrets manager)
+os.environ['DG_CACHE_ENCRYPTION_KEY'] = key_b64
+
+# All client instances use same key
+client1 = create_client()
+client2 = create_client()
+
+# Client1 writes to cache
+client1.put_object(Bucket='bucket', Key='file.zip', Body=data)
+
+# Client2 can read same cached data (same key!)
+client2.get_object(Bucket='bucket', Key='file.zip')
+
+# ✅ Cache shared between processes
+# ⚠️  Key must be securely managed
+```
+
+**Example - AWS Secrets Manager**:
+```python

+```
+
+**Security Best Practices for Persistent Keys**:
+1. **Generate once**: Never regenerate unless rotating
+2. **Store securely**: AWS Secrets Manager, HashiCorp Vault, etc.
+3. **Rotate regularly**: Follow your key rotation policy
+4. **Audit access**: Log who accesses encryption keys
+5. **Principle of least privilege**: Only processes that need shared cache get the key
+
+### Key Rotation
+
+**When to Rotate**:
+- Regular schedule (every 90 days recommended)
+- After security incident
+- When team members leave
+- After key exposure
+
+**How to Rotate**:
+```python
+import os
+from deltaglider import create_client
+
+# OLD KEY (existing cache encrypted with this)
+old_key = os.environ.get('DG_CACHE_ENCRYPTION_KEY')
+
+# Generate NEW KEY
+from cryptography.fernet import Fernet
+new_key = Fernet.generate_key()
+new_key_b64 = base64.b64encode(new_key).decode('utf-8')
+
+# Steps for rotation:
+# 1. Clear old cache (encrypted with old key)
+client_old = create_client()  # Uses old key from env
+client_old.clear_cache()
+
+# 2. Update environment with new key
+os.environ['DG_CACHE_ENCRYPTION_KEY'] = new_key_b64
+
+# 3. Create new client with new key
+client_new = create_client()  # Uses new key
+
+# 4. Continue operations
+client_new.put_object(Bucket='bucket', Key='file.zip', Body=data)
+
+# ✅ Cache now encrypted with new key
+# ✅ Old encrypted cache cleared
+```
+
+## Memory vs. Filesystem Cache
+
+### Filesystem Cache (Default)
+
+**Characteristics**:
+- Stored in `/tmp/deltaglider-*/`
+- Persistent across client recreations (within same process)
+- Can be shared between processes (with persistent encryption key)
+- Slower than memory cache (disk I/O)
+
+**Configuration**:
+```python
+import os
+
+# Explicitly set filesystem cache (this is the default)
+os.environ['DG_CACHE_BACKEND'] = 'filesystem'
+
+from deltaglider import create_client
+client = create_client()
+```
+
+**When to Use**:
+- Default choice for most applications
+- When cache should persist across client recreations
+- Multi-process applications (with persistent key)
+- Memory-constrained environments
+
+**Cache Clearing**:
+```python
+client.clear_cache()
+# Removes all files from /tmp/deltaglider-*/
+# Frees disk space
+```
+
+### Memory Cache
+
+**Characteristics**:
+- Stored in process memory (RAM)
+- Fast access (no disk I/O)
+- Automatically freed when process exits
+- LRU eviction prevents unlimited growth
+- Not shared between processes
+
+**Configuration**:
+```python
+import os
+
+# Enable memory cache
+os.environ['DG_CACHE_BACKEND'] = 'memory'
+os.environ['DG_CACHE_MEMORY_SIZE_MB'] = '200'  # Default: 100MB
+
+from deltaglider import create_client
+client = create_client()
+```
+
+**When to Use**:
+- High-performance requirements
+- Ephemeral environments (containers, Lambda)
+- Short-lived applications
+- CI/CD pipelines
+- When disk I/O is bottleneck
+
+**Cache Clearing**:
+```python
+client.clear_cache()
+# Frees memory immediately
+# No disk I/O
+```
+
+**LRU Eviction**:
+Memory cache automatically evicts least recently used entries when size limit is reached. No manual intervention needed.
+
+## Best Practices Summary
+
+### ✅ DO
+
+1. **Clear cache periodically** in long-running applications
+2. **Clear cache in `finally` blocks** for batch jobs
+3. **Use fixtures for tests** to ensure clean state
+4. **Monitor cache size** in production
+5. **Use ephemeral keys** when possible (maximum security)
+6. **Store persistent keys securely** (Secrets Manager, Vault)
+7. **Rotate encryption keys** regularly
+8. **Use memory cache** for ephemeral environments
+9. **Clear cache after config changes**
+10. **Document cache strategy** for your application
+
+### ❌ DON'T
+
+1. **Never let cache grow unbounded** in long-running apps
+2. **Don't share ephemeral encrypted cache** between processes
+3. **Don't store persistent keys in code** or version control
+4. **Don't forget to clear cache in tests**
+5. **Don't assume cache is automatically cleaned** in SDK usage
+6. **Don't use persistent keys** unless you need cross-process sharing
+7. **Don't skip key rotation**
+8. **Don't ignore memory limits** for memory cache
+
+## Monitoring Cache Health
+
+### Cache Size Tracking
+
+```python
+import os
+from pathlib import Path
+from deltaglider import create_client
+
+def get_cache_size_mb(cache_dir: Path) -> float:
+    """Calculate total cache size in MB."""
+    total_bytes = sum(f.stat().st_size for f in cache_dir.rglob('*') if f.is_file())
+    return total_bytes / (1024 * 1024)
+
+# Get cache directory (ephemeral, changes per process)
+cache_dir = Path(tempfile.gettempdir())
+deltaglider_caches = list(cache_dir.glob('deltaglider-*'))
+
+if deltaglider_caches:
+    cache_path = deltaglider_caches[0]
+    cache_size_mb = get_cache_size_mb(cache_path)
+    print(f"Cache size: {cache_size_mb:.2f} MB")
+
+    # Clear if over threshold
+    if cache_size_mb > 500:
+        client = create_client()
+        client.clear_cache()
+        print("Cache cleared - exceeded 500MB")
+```
+
+### Memory Cache Monitoring
+
+```python
+import os
+os.environ['DG_CACHE_BACKEND'] = 'memory'
+
+from deltaglider import create_client
+
+client = create_client()
+
+# Memory cache auto-evicts at configured limit
+# Monitor via application memory usage tools (not direct API)
+
+# Example with memory_profiler
+from memory_profiler import profile
+
+@profile
+def upload_many_files():
+    for i in range(1000):
+        client.put_object(Bucket='test', Key=f'file{i}.zip', Body=b'data' * 1000)
+    # Check memory profile to see cache memory usage
+
+upload_many_files()
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Problem: Cache Growing Too Large
+
+**Symptoms**:
+- Disk space running out (`/tmp` filling up)
+- High memory usage
+
+**Solution**:
+```python
+# Implement automatic cache clearing
+import psutil
+
+client = create_client()
+
+def smart_cache_clear():
+    """Clear cache if memory/disk pressure detected."""
+    # Check disk space
+    disk = psutil.disk_usage('/tmp')
+    if disk.percent > 80:
+        client.clear_cache()
+        print("Cache cleared - disk pressure")
+        return
+
+    # Check memory usage
+    memory = psutil.virtual_memory()
+    if memory.percent > 80:
+        client.clear_cache()
+        print("Cache cleared - memory pressure")
+
+# Call periodically
+schedule.every(15).minutes.do(smart_cache_clear)
+```
+
+### Problem: Decryption Failures After Key Rotation
+
+**Symptoms**:
+- `CacheCorruptionError: Decryption failed`
+- After rotating encryption keys
+
+**Solution**:
+```python
+# Clear cache before using new key
+old_client = create_client()  # Old key
+old_client.clear_cache()
+
+# Update encryption key
+os.environ['DG_CACHE_ENCRYPTION_KEY'] = new_key
+
+# Create new client
+new_client = create_client()  # New key
+```
+
+### Problem: Tests Failing Due to Cached Data
+
+**Symptoms**:
+- Tests pass in isolation, fail when run together
+- Unexpected data in downloads
+
+**Solution**:
+```python
+# Always clear cache in test teardown
+@pytest.fixture(autouse=True)
+def clear_cache_after_test():
+    """Automatically clear cache after every test."""
+    yield
+    # Teardown
+    client = create_client()
+    client.clear_cache()
+```

+# DG_MAX_RATIO - Delta Compression Efficiency Guard
+
+## Overview
+
+`DG_MAX_RATIO` is a **safety threshold** that prevents inefficient delta compression. It controls the maximum acceptable ratio of `delta_size / original_file_size`.
+
+**Default**: `0.5` (50%)
+**Range**: `0.0` to `1.0`
+**Environment Variable**: `DG_MAX_RATIO`
+
+## The Problem It Solves
+
+When files are **too different**, xdelta3 can create a delta file that's **almost as large as the original file** (or even larger!). This defeats the purpose of compression and wastes:
+- ❌ Storage space (storing a large delta instead of the original)
+- ❌ CPU time (creating and applying the delta)
+- ❌ Network bandwidth (downloading delta + reference instead of just the file)
+
+## How It Works
+
+```
+1. Upload file → Create delta using xdelta3
+2. Calculate ratio = delta_size / original_file_size
+3. If ratio > DG_MAX_RATIO:
+   ❌ Discard delta, store original file directly
+   Else:
+   ✅ Keep delta, save storage space
+```
+
+### Example Flow
+
+```
+Original file: 100MB
+Reference file: 100MB (uploaded previously)
+
+xdelta3 creates delta: 60MB
+Ratio = 60MB / 100MB = 0.6 (60%)
+
+With DG_MAX_RATIO=0.5:
+  ❌ Delta rejected (60% > 50%)
+  Action: Store 100MB original file
+  Reason: Delta not efficient enough
+
+With DG_MAX_RATIO=0.7:
+  ✅ Delta accepted (60% ≤ 70%)
+  Action: Store 60MB delta
+  Savings: 40MB (40%)
+```
+
+## Default Value: 0.5 (50%)
+
+**Meaning**: Only use delta compression if the delta is **≤50% of the original file size**
+
+This default provides:
+- ✅ Minimum 50% storage savings when delta compression is used
+- ✅ Prevents wasting CPU on inefficient compression
+- ✅ Works well for typical versioned releases (minor updates between versions)
+- ✅ Balanced approach without manual tuning
+
+## When to Adjust
+
+### 🔽 Lower Value (More Conservative)
+
+**Set `DG_MAX_RATIO=0.2-0.3` when:**
+- Files change significantly between versions (major updates, refactors)
+- Storage cost is **very high** (premium S3 tiers, small quotas)
+- You want to avoid **any** inefficient compression
+- You need guaranteed high-quality compression (≥70% savings)
+
+**Example**:
+```bash
+export DG_MAX_RATIO=0.3
+
+# Only accept deltas that are ≤30% of original size
+# More files stored directly, but guaranteed ≥70% savings when using deltas
+```
+
+**Trade-off**:
+- ✅ Higher quality compression when deltas are used
+- ❌ Fewer files will use delta compression
+- ❌ More direct uploads (higher storage for dissimilar files)
+
+### 🔼 Higher Value (More Permissive)
+
+**Set `DG_MAX_RATIO=0.6-0.8` when:**
+- Files are very similar (minor patches, nightly builds, incremental changes)
+- Storage cost is **cheap** (large S3 buckets, unlimited quotas)
+- CPU time is **expensive** (you want to save re-uploading even with modest compression)
+- You want to maximize delta compression usage
+
+**Example**:
+```bash
+export DG_MAX_RATIO=0.7
+
+# Accept deltas up to 70% of original size
+# More files use delta compression, even with modest 30% savings
+```
+
+**Trade-off**:
+- ✅ More files use delta compression
+- ✅ Save bandwidth even with modest compression
+- ❌ Some deltas may only save 20-30% space
+- ❌ More CPU time spent on marginal compressions
+
+## Real-World Scenarios
+
+### Scenario 1: Nightly Builds (Minimal Changes) ⭐ IDEAL
+
+```
+my-app-v1.0.0.zip → 100MB (reference)
+my-app-v1.0.1.zip → 100MB (0.1% code change)
+
+Delta: 200KB (0.2% of original)
+Ratio: 0.002
+
+With ANY DG_MAX_RATIO: ✅ Use delta (99.8% savings!)
+Result: Store 200KB instead of 100MB
+```
+
+**This is what DeltaGlider excels at!**
+
+### Scenario 2: Major Version (Significant Changes)
+
+```
+my-app-v1.0.0.zip → 100MB (reference)
+my-app-v2.0.0.zip → 100MB (complete rewrite, 85% different)
+
+Delta: 85MB (85% of original)
+Ratio: 0.85
+
+With DG_MAX_RATIO=0.5: ❌ Store original (85% > 50%)
+  → Stores 100MB directly
+  → No compression benefit, but no CPU waste
+
+With DG_MAX_RATIO=0.9: ✅ Use delta (85% ≤ 90%)
+  → Stores 85MB delta
+  → Only 15% savings, questionable benefit
+```
+
+**Recommendation**: For major versions, default `0.5` correctly rejects inefficient compression.
+
+### Scenario 3: Different File Format (Same Content)
+
+```
+my-app-v1.0.0.zip → 100MB (ZIP archive)
+my-app-v1.0.0.tar → 100MB (TAR archive, same content)
+
+Delta: 70MB (completely different format structure)
+Ratio: 0.70
+
+With DG_MAX_RATIO=0.5: ❌ Store original (70% > 50%)
+  → Stores 100MB directly
+  → Correct decision: formats too different
+
+With DG_MAX_RATIO=0.8: ✅ Use delta (70% ≤ 80%)
+  → Stores 70MB delta
+  → 30% savings, but CPU-intensive
+```
+
+**Recommendation**: Use consistent file formats for better compression. Default `0.5` correctly rejects cross-format compression.
+
+### Scenario 4: Incremental Updates (Sweet Spot) ⭐
+
+```
+my-app-v1.0.0.zip → 100MB (reference)
+my-app-v1.0.1.zip → 100MB (minor bugfix, 5% code change)
+
+Delta: 5MB (5% of original)
+Ratio: 0.05
+
+With ANY DG_MAX_RATIO: ✅ Use delta (95% savings!)
+Result: Store 5MB instead of 100MB
+```
+
+**This is the target use case for delta compression!**
+
+## How to Choose the Right Value
+
+### Decision Tree
+
+```
+Do your files have minimal changes between versions? (< 5% different)
+├─ YES → Use default 0.5 ✅
+│         Delta compression will work perfectly
+│
+└─ NO  → Are your files significantly different? (> 50% different)
+          ├─ YES → Lower to 0.2-0.3 🔽
+          │         Avoid wasting time on inefficient compression
+          │
+          └─ NO  → Are they moderately different? (20-50% different)
+                   ├─ Storage is expensive → Lower to 0.3 🔽
+                   │                         Only high-quality compression
+                   │
+                   └─ Storage is cheap → Raise to 0.6-0.7 🔼
+                                          Accept modest savings
+```
+
+### Quick Reference Table
+
+| File Similarity | Recommended DG_MAX_RATIO | Expected Behavior |
+|----------------|--------------------------|-------------------|
+| Nearly identical (< 5% change) | **0.5 (default)** | 🟢 95%+ savings |
+| Minor updates (5-20% change) | **0.5 (default)** | 🟢 80-95% savings |
+| Moderate changes (20-50% change) | **0.4-0.6** | 🟡 50-80% savings |
+| Major changes (50-80% change) | **0.3 or lower** | 🔴 Store directly |
+| Complete rewrites (> 80% change) | **0.3 or lower** | 🔴 Store directly |
+
+### Use Cases by Industry
+
+**Software Releases (SaaS)**:
+```bash
+export DG_MAX_RATIO=0.5  # Default
+# Nightly builds with minor changes compress perfectly
+```
+
+**Mobile App Builds**:
+```bash
+export DG_MAX_RATIO=0.4  # Slightly conservative
+# iOS/Android builds can vary, want quality compression only
+```
+
+**Database Backups**:
+```bash
+export DG_MAX_RATIO=0.7  # Permissive
+# Daily backups are very similar, accept modest savings
+```
+
+**Document Archives**:
+```bash
+export DG_MAX_RATIO=0.6  # Moderate
+# Documents change incrementally, accept good savings
+```
+
+**Video/Media Archives**:
+```bash
+export DG_MAX_RATIO=0.2  # Very conservative
+# Media files are unique, only compress if very similar
+```
+

+```
+
+## Monitoring and Tuning
+
+### Check Delta Ratios After Upload
+
+```python
+from deltaglider import create_client
+
+client = create_client()

+
+if summary.is_delta:
+    print(f"✅ Used delta compression (ratio {summary.delta_ratio:.2f})")
+    if summary.delta_ratio > 0.4:
+        print(f"⚠️  Consider lowering DG_MAX_RATIO for better quality")
+else:
+    print(f"❌ Stored directly (delta would have been ratio ~{summary.delta_ratio:.2f})")
+    if summary.delta_ratio < 0.6:
+        print(f"💡 Consider raising DG_MAX_RATIO to enable compression")
+```
+
+### Batch Analysis
+
+```python
+from deltaglider import create_client
+from pathlib import Path
+
+client = create_client()
+ratios = []
+
+for file in Path("releases").glob("*.zip"):
+    summary = client.upload(str(file), f"s3://bucket/{file.name}")
+    if summary.is_delta:
+        ratios.append(summary.delta_ratio)
+
+if ratios:
+    avg_ratio = sum(ratios) / len(ratios)
+    max_ratio = max(ratios)
+
+    print(f"Average delta ratio: {avg_ratio:.2f}")
+    print(f"Maximum delta ratio: {max_ratio:.2f}")
+    print(f"Files compressed: {len(ratios)}")
+
+    if avg_ratio < 0.2:
+        print("💡 Consider raising DG_MAX_RATIO - you're getting excellent compression")
+    elif max_ratio > 0.6:
+        print("⚠️  Consider lowering DG_MAX_RATIO - some deltas are inefficient")
+```
+
+### Optimization Strategy
+
+1. **Start with default (0.5)**
+2. **Monitor delta ratios** for 1 week of uploads
+3. **Analyze results**:
+   - If most ratios < 0.2: Consider raising to 0.6-0.7
+   - If many ratios > 0.4: Consider lowering to 0.3-0.4
+   - If ratios vary widely: Keep default 0.5
+4. **Adjust and re-test** for 1 week
+5. **Repeat until optimal** for your use case
+
+## Advanced Usage
+
+### Dynamic Ratio Based on File Type
+
+```python
+import os
+from pathlib import Path
+from deltaglider import create_client
+
+def get_optimal_ratio(file_path: str) -> float:
+    """Determine optimal ratio based on file type."""
+    suffix = Path(file_path).suffix.lower()
+
+    # Very compressible (source code archives)
+    if suffix in ['.zip', '.tar', '.gz']:
+        return 0.6
+
+    # Moderately compressible (compiled binaries)
+    elif suffix in ['.jar', '.war', '.deb', '.rpm']:
+        return 0.5
+
+    # Rarely compressible (media, already compressed)
+    elif suffix in ['.mp4', '.jpg', '.png']:
+        return 0.2
+
+    # Default
+    return 0.5

+**A**: Delta compression will **always** be used, even if the delta is larger than the original file! This is generally a bad idea and defeats the purpose of the threshold.
+
+**Example**:
+```bash
+export DG_MAX_RATIO=1.0
+
+# File: 100MB, Delta: 120MB
+# Ratio: 1.2
+# With DG_MAX_RATIO=1.0: ✅ Use delta (1.2 > 1.0 but we accept anything ≤1.0)
+# Wait, that's wrong! The delta is LARGER than the original!
+
+# NEVER set DG_MAX_RATIO to 1.0 or higher
+```
+
+### Q: What happens if I set DG_MAX_RATIO=0.0?
+
+**A**: Delta compression will **never** be used. All files will be stored directly. This is equivalent to disabling DeltaGlider's compression entirely.
+
+### Q: Can I disable the ratio check?
+
+**A**: No, and you shouldn't want to. The ratio check is a critical safety feature that prevents wasting storage and CPU on inefficient compression.
+
+### Q: Does DG_MAX_RATIO affect downloading?
+
+**A**: No, `DG_MAX_RATIO` only affects **uploads**. During download, DeltaGlider automatically detects whether a file is stored as a delta or directly and handles reconstruction accordingly.
+
+### Q: Can I set different ratios for different buckets?
+
+**A**: Not directly via environment variables, but you can change `DG_MAX_RATIO` before each upload in your code:
+
+```python
+import os
+from deltaglider import create_client
+
+# High-quality compression for production releases
+os.environ['DG_MAX_RATIO'] = '0.3'
+client = create_client()
+client.upload("prod-release.zip", "s3://production/")
+
+# Permissive compression for dev builds
+os.environ['DG_MAX_RATIO'] = '0.7'
+client = create_client()
+client.upload("dev-build.zip", "s3://development/")
+```
+
+### Q: How do I know if my DG_MAX_RATIO is set correctly?
+
+**A**: Monitor your upload summaries. If most deltas have ratios close to your threshold (e.g., 0.45-0.50 with default 0.5), you might want to lower it. If most deltas have very low ratios (e.g., < 0.2), you could raise it.
+
+**Ideal scenario**: Most successful delta compressions have ratios < 0.3, and inefficient deltas (> 0.5) are correctly rejected.
+
+## Summary
+
+**`DG_MAX_RATIO` prevents wasting time and storage on inefficient delta compression.**
+
+### Quick Takeaways
+
+✅ **Default 0.5 works for 90% of use cases**
+✅ **Lower values (0.2-0.3) for dissimilar files or expensive storage**
+✅ **Higher values (0.6-0.7) for very similar files or cheap storage**
+✅ **Monitor delta ratios to tune for your use case**
+✅ **Never set to 1.0 or higher (defeats the purpose)**
+✅ **Never set to 0.0 (disables delta compression entirely)**
+
+### Golden Rule
+
+**If you're not sure, keep the default `0.5`.**
+
+It's a sensible balance that:
+- Prevents inefficient compression (no deltas > 50% of original size)
+- Allows excellent savings on similar files (most deltas are < 20%)
+- Works well for typical versioned releases
+- Requires no manual tuning for most use cases

+# EC2 Region Detection & Cost Optimization
+
+DeltaGlider automatically detects when you're running on an EC2 instance and warns you about potential cross-region data transfer charges.
+
+## Overview
+
+When running `deltaglider migrate` on an EC2 instance, DeltaGlider:
+
+1. **Detects EC2 Environment**: Uses IMDSv2 (Instance Metadata Service v2) to determine if running on EC2
+2. **Retrieves Instance Region**: Gets the actual AWS region where your EC2 instance is running
+3. **Compares Regions**: Checks if your EC2 region matches the S3 client region
+4. **Warns About Costs**: Displays clear warnings when regions don't match
+
+## Why This Matters
+
+**AWS Cross-Region Data Transfer Costs**:
+- **Same region**: No additional charges for data transfer
+- **Cross-region**: $0.02 per GB transferred (can add up quickly for large migrations)
+- **NAT Gateway**: Additional charges if going through NAT
+
+**Example Cost Impact**:
+- Migrating 1TB from `us-east-1` EC2 → `us-west-2` S3 = ~$20 in data transfer charges
+- Same migration within same region = $0 in data transfer charges
+
+## Output Examples
+
+### Scenario 1: Regions Aligned (Optimal) ✅
+
+```bash
+$ deltaglider migrate s3://old-bucket/ s3://new-bucket/
+EC2 Instance: us-east-1a
+S3 Client Region: us-east-1
+✓ Regions aligned - no cross-region charges
+Migrating from s3://old-bucket/
+           to s3://new-bucket/
+...
+```
+
+**Result**: No warnings, optimal configuration, no extra charges.
+
+---
+
+### Scenario 2: Auto-Detected Mismatch (INFO) ℹ️
+
+```bash
+$ deltaglider migrate s3://old-bucket/ s3://new-bucket/
+EC2 Instance: us-west-2a
+S3 Client Region: us-east-1
+
+ℹ️  INFO: EC2 region (us-west-2) differs from configured S3 region (us-east-1)
+    Consider using --region us-west-2 to avoid cross-region charges.
+
+Migrating from s3://old-bucket/
+           to s3://new-bucket/
+...
+```
+
+**Result**: Informational warning, suggests optimal region. User didn't explicitly set wrong region, so it's likely from their AWS config.
+
+---
+
+### Scenario 3: Explicit Region Override Mismatch (WARNING) ⚠️
+
+```bash
+$ deltaglider migrate --region us-east-1 s3://old-bucket/ s3://new-bucket/
+EC2 Instance: us-west-2a
+S3 Client Region: us-east-1
+
+⚠️  WARNING: EC2 region=us-west-2 != S3 client region=us-east-1
+    Expect cross-region/NAT data charges. Align regions (set client region=us-west-2)
+    before proceeding. Or drop --region for automatic region resolution.
+
+Migrating from s3://old-bucket/
+           to s3://new-bucket/
+...
+```
+
+**Result**: Strong warning because user explicitly set the wrong region with `--region` flag. They might not realize the cost implications.
+
+---
+
+### Scenario 4: Not on EC2
+
+```bash
+$ deltaglider migrate s3://old-bucket/ s3://new-bucket/
+S3 Client Region: us-east-1
+Migrating from s3://old-bucket/
+           to s3://new-bucket/
+...
+```
+
+**Result**: Simple region display, no EC2 warnings (not applicable).
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Disable EC2 Detection
+
+If you want to disable EC2 detection (e.g., for testing or if it causes issues):
+
+```bash
+export DG_DISABLE_EC2_DETECTION=true
+deltaglider migrate s3://old/ s3://new/
+```
+
+Or in your script:
+
+```python
+import os
+os.environ["DG_DISABLE_EC2_DETECTION"] = "true"
+```
+
+### How It Works
+
+DeltaGlider uses **IMDSv2** (Instance Metadata Service v2) for security:
+
+1. **Token Request** (PUT with TTL):
+   ```
+   PUT http://169.254.169.254/latest/api/token
+   X-aws-ec2-metadata-token-ttl-seconds: 21600
+   ```
+
+2. **Metadata Request** (GET with token):
+   ```
+   GET http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/placement/region
+   X-aws-ec2-metadata-token: <token>
+   ```
+
+3. **Fast Timeout**: 1 second timeout for non-EC2 environments (no delay if not on EC2)
+
+### Security Notes
+
+- **IMDSv2 Only**: DeltaGlider uses the more secure IMDSv2, not the legacy IMDSv1
+- **No Credentials**: Only reads metadata, never accesses credentials
+- **Graceful Fallback**: Silently skips detection if IMDS unavailable
+- **No Network Impact**: Uses local-only IP (169.254.169.254), never leaves the instance
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### For Cost Optimization
+
+1. **Same Region**: Always try to keep EC2 instance and S3 bucket in the same region
+2. **Check First**: Run with `--dry-run` to verify the setup before actual migration
+3. **Use Auto-Detection**: Don't specify `--region` unless you have a specific reason
+4. **Monitor Costs**: Use AWS Cost Explorer to track cross-region data transfer
+
+### For Terraform/IaC
+
+```hcl
+# Good: EC2 and S3 in same region
+resource "aws_instance" "app" {
+  region = "us-west-2"
+}
+
+resource "aws_s3_bucket" "data" {
+  region = "us-west-2"  # Same region
+}
+```
+
+### For Multi-Region Setups
+
+If you MUST do cross-region transfers:
+
+1. **Use VPC Endpoints**: Reduce NAT Gateway costs
+2. **Schedule Off-Peak**: AWS charges less during off-peak hours in some regions
+3. **Consider S3 Transfer Acceleration**: May be cheaper for very large transfers
+4. **Batch Operations**: Minimize number of API calls
+
+## Technical Details
+
+### EC2MetadataAdapter
+
+Location: `src/deltaglider/adapters/ec2_metadata.py`
+
+Key methods:
+- `is_running_on_ec2()`: Detects EC2 environment
+- `get_region()`: Returns AWS region code (e.g., "us-east-1")
+- `get_availability_zone()`: Returns AZ (e.g., "us-east-1a")
+
+### Region Logging
+
+Location: `src/deltaglider/app/cli/aws_compat.py`
+
+Function: `log_aws_region(service, region_override=False)`
+
+Logic:
+- If not EC2: Show S3 region only
+- If EC2 + regions match: Green checkmark ✅
+- If EC2 + auto-detected mismatch: Blue INFO ℹ️
+- If EC2 + `--region` mismatch: Yellow WARNING ⚠️
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### "Cannot connect to IMDS"
+
+**Cause**: Network policy blocks access to 169.254.169.254
+
+**Solution**:
+```bash
+# Test IMDS connectivity
+TOKEN=$(curl -X PUT "http://169.254.169.254/latest/api/token" \
+  -H "X-aws-ec2-metadata-token-ttl-seconds: 21600")
+curl -H "X-aws-ec2-metadata-token: $TOKEN" \
+  http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/placement/region
+
+# If it fails, disable detection
+export DG_DISABLE_EC2_DETECTION=true
+```
+
+### "Wrong region detected"
+
+**Cause**: Cached metadata or race condition
+
+**Solution**: DeltaGlider caches metadata for performance. Restart the process to refresh.
+
+### "Warning appears but I want cross-region"
+
+**Cause**: You intentionally need cross-region transfer
+
+**Solution**: This is just a warning, not an error. The migration will proceed. The warning helps you confirm you understand the cost implications.
+
+## FAQ
+
+**Q: Does this slow down my migrations?**
+A: No. EC2 detection happens once before migration starts (< 100ms). It doesn't affect migration performance.
+
+**Q: What if I'm not on EC2 but the detection is slow?**
+A: The timeout is 1 second. If IMDS is unreachable, it fails fast. Disable with `DG_DISABLE_EC2_DETECTION=true`.
+
+**Q: Does this work on Fargate/ECS/Lambda?**
+A: Yes! All AWS compute services support IMDSv2. The detection works the same way.
+
+**Q: Can I use this with LocalStack/MinIO?**
+A: Yes. When using `--endpoint-url`, DeltaGlider skips EC2 detection (not applicable for non-AWS S3).
+
+**Q: Will this detect VPC endpoints?**
+A: No. VPC endpoints don't change the "region" from an EC2 perspective. The warning still applies if regions don't match.

+### Cache Management Methods
+
+DeltaGlider maintains two types of caches for performance optimization:
+1. **Reference cache**: Binary reference files used for delta reconstruction
+2. **Statistics cache**: Bucket statistics (session-scoped)
+
+#### `clear_cache`
+
+Clear all cached data including reference files and bucket statistics.
+
+```python
+def clear_cache(self) -> None
+```
+
+##### Description
+
+Removes all cached reference files from the local filesystem and invalidates all bucket statistics. Useful for:
+- Forcing fresh statistics computation
+- Freeing disk space in long-running applications
+- Ensuring latest data after external bucket modifications
+- Testing and development workflows
+
+##### Cache Types Cleared
+
+1. **Reference Cache**: Binary reference files stored in `/tmp/deltaglider-*/`
+   - Encrypted at rest with ephemeral keys
+   - Content-addressed storage (SHA256-based filenames)
+   - Automatically cleaned up on process exit
+
+2. **Statistics Cache**: Bucket statistics cached per client session
+   - Metadata about compression ratios and object counts
+   - Session-scoped (not persisted to disk)
+   - Automatically invalidated on bucket mutations
+
+##### Examples
+
+```python
+# Long-running application
+client = create_client()
+
+# Work with files
+for i in range(1000):
+    client.upload(f"file_{i}.zip", "s3://bucket/")
+
+    # Periodic cache cleanup to prevent disk buildup
+    if i % 100 == 0:
+        client.clear_cache()
+
+# Force fresh statistics after external changes
+stats_before = client.get_bucket_stats('releases')  # Cached
+# ... external tool modifies bucket ...
+client.clear_cache()
+stats_after = client.get_bucket_stats('releases')  # Fresh data
+
+# Development workflow
+client.clear_cache()  # Start with clean state
+```
+
+#### `evict_cache`
+
+Remove a specific cached reference file from the local cache.
+
+```python
+def evict_cache(self, s3_url: str) -> None
+```
+
+##### Parameters
+
+- **s3_url** (`str`): S3 URL of the reference file to evict (e.g., `s3://bucket/prefix/reference.bin`)
+
+##### Description
+
+Removes a specific reference file from the cache without affecting other cached files or statistics. Useful for:
+- Selective cache invalidation when specific references are updated
+- Memory management in applications with many delta spaces
+- Testing specific delta compression scenarios
+
+##### Examples
+
+```python
+# Evict specific reference after update
+client.upload("new-reference.zip", "s3://releases/v2.0.0/")
+client.evict_cache("s3://releases/v2.0.0/reference.bin")
+
+# Next upload will fetch fresh reference
+client.upload("similar-file.zip", "s3://releases/v2.0.0/")
+
+# Selective eviction for specific delta spaces
+delta_spaces = ["v1.0.0", "v1.1.0", "v1.2.0"]
+for space in delta_spaces:
+    client.evict_cache(f"s3://releases/{space}/reference.bin")

 3. **Use Pagination**: For large buckets, use `MaxKeys` and `ContinuationToken` to paginate results.
 
 4. **Cache Results**: If you need metadata frequently, consider caching the results to avoid repeated HEAD requests.

+
+    This command facilitates the migration of existing S3 objects to another bucket

+    - Resume capability: Only copies files that don't exist in destination
+    - Progress tracking: Shows migration progress
+    - Confirmation prompt: Shows file count before starting (use --yes to skip)
+    - Prefix preservation: By default, source prefix is preserved in destination
+
+    When migrating a prefix, the source prefix name is preserved by default:
+        s3://src/prefix1/ → s3://dest/      creates s3://dest/prefix1/
+        s3://src/a/b/c/  → s3://dest/x/    creates s3://dest/x/c/

+
+        Forcibly removes all cached data from memory or disk. This is essential for
+        long-running applications that need to:
+        - Free memory/disk space
+        - Invalidate cache after configuration changes
+        - Ensure fresh data fetch from S3
+        - Clean up after tests
+
+        **Important for Long-Running Applications**:
+        Unlike the CLI which cleans up cache on exit, programmatic SDK usage
+        requires manual cache management. Call this method periodically or when:
+        - Application runs for extended periods (hours/days)
+        - Memory usage is high
+        - Configuration changes (endpoint, credentials, encryption key)
+        - Testing scenarios requiring clean state
+
+        **Effects**:
+        - Filesystem cache: Removes all files from cache directory
+        - Memory cache: Clears all in-memory data
+        - Encrypted cache: Clears encryption key mappings
+        - Next upload will re-fetch reference from S3
+
+        **Example - Long-Running Service**:
+        ```python
+        from deltaglider import create_client
+        import schedule
+        import time
+
+        client = create_client()
+
+        def upload_task():
+            client.put_object(Bucket='releases', Key='app.zip', Body=open('app.zip', 'rb'))
+
+        def cleanup_task():
+            client.clear_cache()  # Free resources every hour
+            print("Cache cleared")
+
+        # Upload every 10 minutes
+        schedule.every(10).minutes.do(upload_task)

+        while True:
+            schedule.run_pending()
+            time.sleep(1)
+        ```
+
+        **Example - Test Cleanup**:
+        ```python
+        def test_upload():
+            client = create_client()
+            try:

+
+        **Example - After Configuration Change**:
