I created a 14-day trial account on Databricks.com and linked it to my AWS. I'm aware that DBUs are free for 14 days, but any AWS charges are my own. I created one workspace, and the CloudFormation was successful. I haven't used it for two days and then I noticed my AWS bill suddenly went to $1/day. I have no EC2s running. I have two S3s created by the CF, but they have <1MB of files stored.

Thanks for the extra details. I found the lingering charge: a NAT Gateway that stays running. Databricks should really remove that when the trial ends, otherwise a lot of trial users retain lingering, recurring charges. I was able to see this in the recently updated AWS Bill experience, which will show the current month's bill, plus a break-down by service.

I also faced the same not sure how to disable or limit the usage.

You may want to look at AWSSupport-ListEC2Resources, that's how I found lingering charges.
