Cleaning Up Resources

In this section, we will clean up all AWS resources that were created during the workshop in order to:

  • Avoid unwanted charges.
  • Clear the testing environment.
  • Ensure compliance with cloud resource management best practices.

Delete Lambda Functions

  1. Go to the AWS Console → Lambda
  2. Select each function (e.g., create_user, get_user)
  3. Click Actions → Delete function
  4. Enter the function name to confirm and delete

📌 If you have multiple functions, double-check to avoid deleting the wrong ones.

Delete API Gateway

  1. Go to AWS Console → API Gateway
  2. Select REST APIs
  3. Choose the API you want to delete (e.g., UserAPI)
  4. Click Actions → Delete API and confirm

🔒 After deletion, all associated endpoints will no longer be accessible.

Delete DynamoDB Tables

  1. Go to AWS Console → DynamoDB
  2. Click on the Tables tab
  3. Select each table (e.g., Users) → Actions → Delete Table
  4. Confirm the deletion

All data will be permanently lost if no backup exists.
