Delete an orchestrated deployment

This page provides instructions for deleting several types of cloud deployments, and outlines key considerations before proceeding.

{{ech}} [elastic-cloud-hosted]

To delete an {{ech}} deployment:

  1. Log in to the {{ecloud}} Console.
  2. On the deployment overview page, select Actions, then select Delete deployment and confirm the deletion.

When you delete your deployment, billing stops immediately, rounding up to the nearest hour.

:::{{warning}} When deployments are deleted, we erase all data on disk, including snapshots. Snapshots are retained for very a limited amount of time post deletion and we cannot guarantee that deleted deployments can be restored from snapshots for this reason. If you accidentally delete a deployment, contact support as soon as possible to increase the likelihood of restoring your deployment. :::

:::{{tip}} If you want to keep the snapshot for future purposes even after the deployment deletion, you should use a custom snapshot repository. :::

Serverless

:::{note} :applies_to: serverless: preview You can't delete a project that's linked to a {{cps}} ({{cps-init}}) origin project. To delete a linked project, first unlink it from every origin project it's connected to, then delete it. :::

To delete an {{serverless-full}} project:

  1. Log in to the {{ecloud}} Console.
  2. Find your project on the home page in the Serverless Projects card and select Manage to access it directly. Or, select Serverless Projects to go to the projects page to view all of your projects.
  3. Select Actions, then select Delete project and confirm the deletion.

:::{warning} All data is lost. Billing for usage is by the hour and any outstanding charges for usage before you deleted the project will still appear on your next bill. :::

{{ece}}

Delete a deployment

To delete an {{ece}} deployment:

  1. Log into the Cloud UI.

  2. On the Deployments page, select your deployment.

    Narrow the list by name, ID, or choose from several other filters. To further define the list, use a combination of filters.

  3. From the Actions menu, terminate the deployment.

  4. From the Actions menu, select Delete deployment and follow the steps to delete the deployment permanently.

:::{warning} Deleting a deployment cannot be undone. :::

Terminate a deployment

Terminating a deployment stops all running instances and deletes all data. Only configuration information is saved so that you can restore the deployment in the future. If there is a snapshot repository associated with the {{es}} cluster and at least one snapshot has been taken, you can restore the cluster with the same indices later.

To terminate an {{ece}} deployment,

  1. Log into the Cloud UI.

  2. On the Deployments page, select your deployment.

    Narrow the list by name, ID, or choose from several other filters. To further define the list, use a combination of filters.

  3. From the Actions menu, select Terminate deployment.

Restore a deployment

You can restore a deployment that was previously terminated to its original configuration. Note that the data that was in the deployment is not restored, since it is deleted as part of the termination process. If you have a snapshot, you can restore it to recover the {{es}} indices.

To restore a terminated deployment,

  1. Log into the Cloud UI.
  2. On the Deployments page, select your deployment. Narrow the list by name, ID, or choose from several other filters. To further define the list, use a combination of filters.
  3. From the Actions menu, select Restore deployment and then acknowledge the confirmation message.

{{eck}} [elastic-cloud-kubernetes]

To delete a deployment managed by {{eck}}, remove the corresponding {{es}}, {{kib}}, and any other related custom resources from your Kubernetes cluster. This action deletes all associated pods and their persistent data.

To delete an {{es}} cluster created with {{eck}}:

  1. Run the following command to delete the {{es}} custom resource:

    kubectl delete elasticsearch <elasticsearch-resource-name>

    For example:

    kubectl delete elasticsearch test-deployment

    :::{warning} This deletes the custom resource and all associated resources, such as {{es}} nodes, services, and persistent data volumes. By default, this also deletes the data stored in those volumes, but you can configure the volumeClaimDeletePolicy field in the {{es}} resource manifest to retain the volumes if you plan to recreate the cluster later. :::

  2. If you also deployed {{kib}} or other stack components, delete those resources as well:

    kubectl delete kibana <kibana-resource-name>

:::{{tip}} To fully uninstall {{eck}} from your cluster including all managed resources and the ECK operator, refer to the guide. :::
