How to delete Redshift Serverless ?

Question

I created a serverless redshift to try it out, after 2 hours I am ready to delete it but there is no delete button in any page. 
Searched for info in all docs, google, this community etc. Where can I delete serverless redshift from my account?

Accepted Answer

Hello,

currently you can not delete it by yourselves but you can open a support ticket providing the AWS account id and region in which your serverless is , support can delete it for you.

If you do not have support you can just send an email to the email address you can find in [the Amazon Redshift Serverless documentation page](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/mgmt/working-with-serverless.html). Ask to delete the endpoint and share the AWS AccountID and region in which the endpoint was created.

We plan to provide the delete capability during GA.

Before posting a question please search if a [similar question](https://repost.aws/questions/QUCzDfzdnxTG-eG_ePLHn_eA/how-to-remove-redshift-serverless-vpc-network-or-remove-redshift-server#ANQ1UhudWuT0mZyQd3L4fY-w) was posed in the past.

thank you and hope this helps

Hi,

AWS CLI would allow more functionality especially with the new functionality, Console would normally get updated in some time.

Could you please try the following AWS CLI commands

1. Run describe-clusters
```
aws redshift describe-clusters
{
    "Clusters": []
}
```

2. Delete the cluster with the cluster-identifier from Step No 1.
Make sure to pass --skip-final-cluster-snapshot | --no-skip-final-cluster-snapshot as you may not want a snapshot lying around.
```
aws redshift delete-cluster --cluster-identifier 
```

```
delete-cluster
--cluster-identifier 
[--skip-final-cluster-snapshot | --no-skip-final-cluster-snapshot]
[--final-cluster-snapshot-identifier ]
[--final-cluster-snapshot-retention-period ]
[--cli-input-json ]
[--generate-cli-skeleton ]
```

Deleting a workgroup https://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/mgmt/serverless_delete-workgroup.html 
You can delete a workgroup using the console. Before you do this, make sure that you have your data backed up and snapshots in place. Resources deleted as part of the workgroup in many cases can't be retrieved.

Complete the following steps:

Choose Amazon Redshift Serverless, choose Workgroup configuration and choose Delete Amazon Redshift Serverless instance.

A dialogue opens. When you choose to delete the workgroup, all usage limits are removed, all VPC endpoints are removed, and access to VPC endpoints is removed.

Type delete and select Delete to confirm.

After you complete the steps, the status of the workgroup is Deleting and a banner indicates that the workgroup is being deleted. While the delete process is in progress, some features under the Serverless dashboard are disabled. But you can configure provisioned clusters on the Provisioned clusters dashboard.

After you delete the workgroup, it doesn't appear with the namespace. You can choose the Create workgroup button to create a new one.

You can delete an existing workgroup and associate a new workgroup with a different configuration to the same namespace. When creating the new workgroup, choose the base capacity that works with the size of the data associated with the namespace.

Answer

Currently Redshift serverless is Generally Available (GA) and previously it was required to create a support case to get the cluster deleted as indicated here [1], however, as it is GA the delete functionality is now available to customers via the console.

Therefore, could you kindly try deleting it from your end using the following documentation as a guide [2] and [3]. Essentially, you need to delete the workgroup and then the namespace and if you'd prefer you can delete the workgroup and check the tickbox to delete the namespace at the same time.
