.delete database sharding policy

Delete the database sharding policy. Use the sharding policy to manage data sharding for databases and tables.

The sharding policy defines if and how Extents (data shards) in the Azure Data Explorer cluster should be sealed. When a database is created, it contains the default data sharding policy. This policy is inherited by all tables created in the database (unless the policy is explicitly overridden at the table level).

Syntax

.delete database DatabaseName policy sharding

Arguments

DatabaseName - Specify the name of the databse.

Example

The following example deleted the sharding policy for a database:
