Parameters

• ApplicationName (string) --

  [REQUIRED]

  The name of the running application to stop.

• Force (boolean) --

  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.
