Powertools for AWS Lambda (Java) - Cloudformation Custom Resource Example

This project contains an example of Lambda function using the CloudFormation module of Powertools for AWS Lambda in Java. For more information on this module, please refer to the documentation.

In this example you pass in a bucket name as a parameter and upon CloudFormation events a call is made to a lambda. That lambda attempts to create the bucket on CREATE events, create a new bucket if the name changes with an UPDATE event and delete the bucket upon DELETE events.
