How to delete a Cluster Snapshot in AWS RedShift

Question

Hi Guys,

I have created a cluster snapshot in RedShift. But it is consuming space. How can I remove the snapshot with the CLI command?

Hi@akhtar,

You can delete the specified manual snapshot. The snapshot must be in the available state, with no other users authorized to access the snapshot. The below example deletes a cluster snapshot.

$ aws redshift delete-cluster-snapshot --snapshot-identifier my-snapshot-id
