Delete database

To delete a database, use the Delete button located in the Danger zone section of the database's Configuration tab.

Deleting a database requires the Account Owner role.

Deleted databases cannot be recovered. We recommend making a backup, just in case.

1. Sign in to the Redis Cloud console.

2. Select the database from the list. The Configuration tab is selected by default.

   

3. Scroll to the Danger zone.

   

4. Select the Delete button.

   

5. The Delete database confirmation dialog appears. If this database is the only one in the subscription, you can also delete the subscription at this time.

   • Select Delete my subscription as well to delete both the database and the subscription.

   • Clear Delete my subscription as well to delete the database but keep the subscription.

   Note:

   You will continue to be charged for your subscription until you delete it, even if there are no databases in your subscription.
   

6. To confirm your choice, use the Delete database button or the Delete both button if the delete subscription checkbox is selected.

   

When the operation completes, the database and its data are deleted.
