Deleting your site

Deleting your site terminates all instances participating in the site. Use caution with this option, since you cannot restore a deleted site (all backups of the site are also deleted).

To delete your site, follow the steps below:

Steps:
  1. Log in to ArcGIS Server Cloud Builder on Amazon Web Services.
  2. Find the site you want to delete and click its Delete icon.
  3. Confirm whether you want to delete the Elastic Load Balancer (ELB), then click OK.

    Cloud Builder lets you choose whether to keep the ELB in case you want to use it with a future site. In some scenarios it may be useful to keep the ELB to preserve existing URLs.

Deleting a site terminates all resources included in the site except for your key pair and possibly your ELB (as described above) and your attached EBS volumes. Your EBS volumes will be only preserved if you unchecked Delete the root drive and storage drives when the site is terminated when you built the site in Cloud Builder. Although this checkbox mentions the root drive, the root drive is always deleted when you terminate a site.

You can delete these leftover resources at any time using the AWS Management Console.
