AWS next-generation-sagemaker documentation change

Service: next-generation-sagemaker · 2025-07-04 · Documentation low

File: next-generation-sagemaker/latest/userguide/lakehouse-athena-federated-queries.md

Summary

Updated terminology from 'SageMaker lakehouse architecture' to 'SageMaker Lakehouse' and minor phrasing adjustments for consistency. No functional changes to security controls or procedures.

Security assessment

The changes are purely terminological (e.g., 'architecture' removed from product name) and editorial in nature. While the documentation discusses security features like access controls and permissions, these were already present in the original text. There is no evidence of addressing a specific security vulnerability or adding new security-related content.

Athena complements this as a serverless query service that analyzes data lake and federated data sources such as [Amazon DynamoDB](https://aws.amazon.com/dynamodb/) and PostgreSQL, through using SQL without extract, transform, and load (ETL) scripts. Federated connections in SageMaker lakehouse architecture establish secure links to external data sources, enabling access without data movement.
