AWS amazonglacier documentation change

Service: amazonglacier · 2025-10-01 · Documentation low

File: amazonglacier/latest/dev/deleting-an-archive.md

Summary

Updated service name references from 'S3 Glacier' to 'Glacier' throughout the document, adjusted links and headings to reflect current branding

Security assessment

The changes are purely branding/naming updates (removing 'S3' from service names) and link text adjustments. No security vulnerabilities, encryption settings, access controls, or security-related procedures were modified or added. The operational guidance for archive deletion remains functionally unchanged.

-If you're looking for archival storage solutions we suggest using the S3 Glacier storage classes in Amazon S3, **S3 Glacier Instant Retrieval** , **S3 Glacier Flexible Retrieval** , and **S3 Glacier Deep Archive**. To learn more about these storage options, see [S3 Glacier storage classes](https://aws.amazon.com/s3/storage-classes/glacier/) and [Long-term data storage using S3 Glacier storage classes](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/glacier-storage-classes) in the _Amazon S3 User Guide_. These storage classes use the Amazon S3 API, are available in all regions, and can be managed within the Amazon S3 console. They offer features like Storage Cost Analysis, Storage Lens, advanced optional encryption features, and more.

-You cannot delete an archive using the Amazon S3 Glacier (S3 Glacier) management console. To delete an archive you must use the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) or write code to make a delete request using either the REST API directly or the AWS SDK for Java and .NET wrapper libraries. The following topics explain how to use the AWS SDK for Java and .NET wrapper libraries, the REST API, and the AWS CLI.
