<p>Deletes a Kinesis data stream and all its shards and data. You must shut down any applications that are operating on the stream before you delete the stream. If an application attempts to operate on a deleted stream, it receives the exception <code>ResourceNotFoundException</code>.</p> <note> <p>When invoking this API, it is recommended you use the <code>StreamARN</code> input parameter rather than the <code>StreamName</code> input parameter.</p> </note> <p>If the stream is in the <code>ACTIVE</code> state, you can delete it. After a <code>DeleteStream</code> request, the specified stream is in the <code>DELETING</code> state until Kinesis Data Streams completes the deletion.</p> <p> <b>Note:</b> Kinesis Data Streams might continue to accept data read and write operations, such as <a>PutRecord</a>, <a>PutRecords</a>, and <a>GetRecords</a>, on a stream in the <code>DELETING</code> state until the stream deletion is complete.</p> <p>When you delete a stream, any shards in that stream are also deleted, and any tags are dissociated from the stream.</p> <p>You can use the <a>DescribeStreamSummary</a> operation to check the state of the stream, which is returned in <code>StreamStatus</code>.</p> <p> <a>DeleteStream</a> has a limit of five transactions per second per account.</p>
