Workflows

delete-aurora-cluster
Delete an Aurora cluster member then the cluster with a final snapshot.
Confirms the cluster is available, deletes the member instance, polls until the instance is gone, then deletes the cluster retaining a final snapshot.
4 steps inputs: dbClusterIdentifier, dbInstanceIdentifier, finalDbSnapshotIdentifier outputs: clusterStatus, memberStatus
1
confirmCluster
Describe the Aurora DB cluster to confirm it is available before tearing it down.
2
deleteMember
Delete the cluster member instance, skipping a per-instance final snapshot since a cluster-level snapshot is taken later.
3
pollMemberGone
Describe the member instance to track its teardown. While it is still deleting the workflow loops back to poll again; once it reports deleting it proceeds to remove the cluster.
4
deleteCluster
Delete the Aurora DB cluster, retaining a final cluster snapshot rather than skipping it.

  title: Amazon RDS Delete an Aurora DB Cluster
  summary: Snapshot member instances, delete them, then delete the Aurora cluster.
  description: >-
    Tears down an Aurora DB cluster member and the cluster itself with a final
    cluster snapshot retained. The workflow confirms the cluster is available,
    deletes the supplied member instance while skipping its individual snapshot,
    waits for the instance to disappear, and then deletes the cluster while
    retaining a final cluster snapshot. Every step spells out its request inline
    so the flow can be read and executed without opening the underlying OpenAPI
    description.
