Hello.
I think this answer probably matches your situation.
https://repost.aws/questions/QUJWIzjVnSRli-uxyxd7QNeg/why-are-automated-snapshots-in-rds-exceeding-configured-retention-period#ANkTqq0iWoQCeRpihXBRcF1Q
Can I delete it using the steps below?
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/USER_ManagingAutomatedBackups.html#USER_WorkingWithAutomatedBackups-Deleting
If you use the AWS CLI, I think you can delete it by running the following command.
aws rds delete-db-instance-automated-backup \
--dbi-resource-id db-123ABCEXAMPLE
If the RDS instance remains, it may not be possible to delete it, so in that case, why not set the automatic backup retention period short so that future snapshots will not be retained for a long period of time?
