Deleting a Pay-per-Use DB Instance

You can manually delete a pay-per-use DB instance on the Instances page.

You will not be billed for the instances that were not successfully created.
If you delete a pay-per-use DB instance, its automated backups will also be deleted and you will no longer be billed for them. Manual backups, however, will be retained and generate additional costs.

DB instances cannot be deleted when operations are being performed on them. They can be deleted only after the operations are complete.
If a backup of a DB instance is being restored, the instance cannot be deleted.
A stopped instance cannot be deleted through the console.
If you delete a primary DB instance, its standby DB instance is also deleted automatically. Exercise caution when performing this operation.
Deleted DB instances cannot be recovered and resources are released. Exercise caution when performing this operation. If you want to retain data, create a manual backup first before deleting the DB instance.
You can rebuild a DB instance that was deleted up to 7 days ago from the recycle bin.
You can use a manual backup to restore a DB instance. For details, see Restoring a DB Instance from Backups.
