Implementation

  • You can delete a DynamoDB table by using the DeleteTable API. There is an example in the delete_table.py script.

    Delete your table by running the following command in your AWS Cloud9 terminal.

    $ python delete_table.py

    The resulting output should show that the table was deleted successfully.

  • To delete the AWS Cloud9 environment that you used to run your commands:

    1. Go to the AWS Cloud9 console and choose Your environments from the left navigation pane.

    2. Choose your DynamoDB Deep Dive environment and choose Delete.

    3. In the dialog box, enter Delete in the box, and choose Delete.
