Enable/Disable Workspaces

Workspaces can be disabled when not in use to save on infrastructure costs.

1. Enabling a Workspace quickly spins up the required resources again.

2. Disabling a Workspace terminates all resources in the workspace node group/node pool to save costs.

Since all components are disabled and not deleted, all previously created platform components will be available when a Workspace is enabled again. Recreating the components will not be required.

Cluster Connectivity will not be automatically enabled after a Workspace restart due to the dynamic nature of hostnames/IP addresses.

Cluster connectivity can be restored by enabling it from the e6data console. Click here for instructions.

All external connectors or internal services connecting to Clusters in a restarted Workspace must be updated to use the newly generated hostname.
