AWS AmazonCloudWatch documentation change

Service: AmazonCloudWatch · 2025-05-31 · Documentation low

File: AmazonCloudWatch/latest/monitoring/CloudWatch-OTLP-UsingADOT.md

Summary

Updated documentation to use 'ADOT SDKs' acronym consistently instead of full name, added clarification about 'collector-less trace' export

Security assessment

Changes appear to be terminology updates and feature clarifications rather than security-related fixes. No mention of vulnerabilities, access controls, or security configurations. The IAM permission references remain unchanged.
