In the last post I took a look at the Pros and Cons of AWS StackSets.
In this post I’m going to remove AWS Control Tower from my account because it is preventing me from doing things I need to do. AWS ControlTower uses AWS StackSets and I considered using them in my own code but decided against it for the reasons explained in that post. For now, I just want to remove AWS Control Tower so I can continue migrating the remaining resources into my new account.
Decommissioning AWS Control Tower is a step that cannot be undone. If you don’t follow the proper steps you cannot redeploy AWS Control Tower later.
