Does SCD (Sling Content Distribution) supported by AEM 6.5

[indrajit]

I need to build on a solution to flush the dispatcher cache on activation of content fragments/ experience fragments with activating the content page. The content pages are generated dynamically, there are no physical pages available on the publisher.

There are two approaches are recommended - 

• The preferred approach is Sling Content Distribution (SCD) from the Author.

• The other approach uses the Replication API to invoke the publish Dispatcher flush replication agent.

The solution should need to support both AEM 6.5 and AEM as Cloud.

Questions - 

My question is will SCD also support AEM 6.5?

Is there any other better approach?

Please suggest.

Thanks
