Uninstall the solution

Note

Infrastructure resources that maintain data (for example, S3 buckets, RDS instances, DynamoDB tables) are configured with a RETAIN removal policy. Running mdaa destroy will not remove these resources, so your data is preserved.

However, some non-retained resources (for example, Security Groups) may depend on retained resources like RDS or OpenSearch instances. In these cases, the destroy can fail or take a long time to complete. To avoid this, delete the retained resources first before running mdaa destroy.

Follow these steps to uninstall the solution:

  1. Run mdaa destroy using the same configuration file (mdaa.yaml) that was used for deployment. This tears down all remaining MDAA-managed stacks in the correct dependency order.

    mdaa destroy -c ./mdaa.yaml

  2. Delete any retained data resources (for example, S3 buckets, RDS instances, DynamoDB tables, OpenSearch domains) that are no longer needed. These resources will have the organization name as a prefix.
