AWS AmazonECS documentation change

Service: AmazonECS · 2025-05-16 · Documentation low

File: AmazonECS/latest/developerguide/service-discovery.md

Summary

Minor grammatical rephrasing in service discovery namespace description and updated DNS record format syntax (added hyphens in placeholder names)

Security assessment

The changes are purely editorial/formatting improvements. The first edit simplifies sentence structure without altering technical meaning. The second change standardizes placeholder syntax from space-separated to hyphenated format (e.g., <service-discovery-service-name>), which is a documentation style update rather than a security-related modification. No security controls, vulnerabilities, or security features are mentioned or altered.

-  * **Service discovery namespace** : A logical group of service discovery services that share the same domain name, such as `example.com`. This is the domain name where you want to route traffic to. You can create a namespace with a call to the `aws servicediscovery create-private-dns-namespace` command or in the Amazon ECS console. You can use the `aws servicediscovery list-namespaces` command to view the summary information about the namespaces that were created by the current account.
