Hands-on – cleaning up your AWS account

In the hands-on section of Chapter 1, An Introduction to Data Engineering, we went through how to create a new AWS account. If you created a new account at that point, and have used that account to work through the exercises in this book, you may want to delete that account now that you have reached the final chapter of this book. We’ll include instructions on how to do that here.

However, if this was your first AWS account, you may decide that you want to keep the account open so that you can continue to explore and learn more about AWS using other resources. If that is the case, we’ll include some instructions on how to check your account billing to detect which resources you are still being charged for.
