Uninstalling Using CloudFormation

Uninstalling from the CloudFormation Portal

Deleting the Cluster

The cluster is created as part of a Stack. Deleting the resources in a Stack is simple and detailed instructions can be found here.

Deleting a cluster is a destructive action and can't be undone. Make absolutely sure that you do not want the cluster before deleting it.

Deleting the S3 Buckets

The S3 buckets that are created in the CloudFormation Stack to provide durable storage do not get deleted as part of Stack deletion; they must be deleted separately. This is to help ensure data is not lost during the cluster deletion process.

Detailed instructions on how to remove S3 buckets can be found here.

Deleting a bucket is a destructive action and can't be undone. Make absolutely sure that you do not want the data in the bucket before deleting it.
