Amplify-cli: Removing Elastic Search with @searchable tag

Created on 30 Oct 2019  路  4Comments  路  Source: aws-amplify/amplify-cli

When building my API, I set up some models to be searchable by using the @searchable tag. However, even though I am not using the functionality, the Elastic Search costs are really hurting me.

If I remove the searchable tag and do an amplify push, should that take care of everything, or do I need to also do something inside AWS to stop being charged?

@kaustavghosh06 IMO the amplify team should add a warning to the docs because adding a simple @searchable attribute results in the costs increasing dramatically so extra precaution should be taken with this. Just received a surprise billing and having an (unused) @searchable attribute was the reason.

You can double check in AWS Console if there is a ElasticSearch Service, if not, all is fine.

If you just remove @searchable tag from your schema, the elasticsearch cluster would be removed.
