Delete a Warehouse

Deleting a warehouse permanently removes its clusters, resources, and data. For a BYOC warehouse, you might also need to tear down the cloud infrastructure after deleting the warehouse.

Warning:

Deletion cannot be undone. Before you start, stop dependent applications and make sure you no longer need the warehouse data.

Delete a warehouse​

  1. Log in to the VeloDB Cloud console.
  2. In the upper-left corner, select the warehouse that you want to delete.
  3. In the left navigation pane, under MORE, click Warehouse Settings.
  4. In DANGER ZONE, click Delete Warehouse.
  5. In the confirmation dialog, select the required checkboxes to acknowledge the effect on clusters, applications, and recoverability.
  6. Enter the warehouse name exactly as displayed, then click Confirm.

Delete BYOC infrastructure​

If the deleted warehouse is the last warehouse in its VPC, complete the following provider-specific infrastructure teardown steps.

Wait until the VeloDB Cloud console confirms that the warehouse has been deleted before you begin teardown.

After the warehouse is deleted, open the AWS CloudFormation console to begin the infrastructure teardown.

Clear the S3 bucket​

Emptying the bucket cannot be undone. Verify there are no files to retain before proceeding.
