I am new to AWS. I have a very basic question that needs binary answer.
Situation:
I've been using API Gateway, Lambda Functions, DynamoDB for about 3 weeks now. I use cloudwatch logs but never created any alarms. I'm not sure if any of these services automatically creates an alarm. I created a new DynamoDb table and I saw Cloudwatch Alarms under Insufficient category were created. I'm not sure which of these things (Alarm, Insufficiend, OK) goes off and charges me money.
My questions:
- Can CloudWatch Alarms be created automatically (as by evidence it can be)?
- If i delete automatically created alarms, will they be created automatically?
- If i delete an alarm, will i be charged for it (I guess, no)?
Automatic creation of alarms is what messed me up.
