StopApplication

Stops the application from processing data. You can stop an application only if it is in the running status, unless you set the Force parameter to true.

You can use the DescribeApplication operation to find the application status.

Kinesis Data Analytics takes a snapshot when the application is stopped, unless Force is set to true.

Request Parameters

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

ApplicationName

The name of the running application to stop.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 128.

Pattern: [a-zA-Z0-9_.-]+

Required: Yes

Force

Set to true to force the application to stop. If you set Force to true, Kinesis Data Analytics stops the application without taking a snapshot.

Note

Force-stopping your application may lead to data loss or duplication. To prevent data loss or duplicate processing of data during application restarts, we recommend you to take frequent snapshots of your application.

You can only force stop a Flink-based Kinesis Data Analytics application. You can't force stop a SQL-based Kinesis Data Analytics application.

The application must be in the STARTING, UPDATING, STOPPING, AUTOSCALING, or RUNNING status.

Type: Boolean
