AWS AmazonS3 documentation change
Summary
Updated terminology from 'S3 managed metadata table' to 'AWS managed metadata tables', removed redundant bucket co-location requirements, added new sections for expiring journal records, enabling/disabling inventory tables, and viewing configurations, and updated schema reference to 'Live inventory tables'.
Security assessment
The addition of 'Expiring journal table records' documentation introduces a security-adjacent feature for data lifecycle management, which can reduce exposure risks. However, there is no explicit evidence of addressing a specific security vulnerability. Other changes are terminology updates or feature clarifications without direct security implications.
