AWS amazonglacier documentation change

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

File: amazonglacier/latest/dev/uploading-an-archive-mpu-using-cli.md

Summary

Updated references from 'S3 Glacier' to 'Glacier' throughout the documentation, removed 'S3' prefix from service names and links, and adjusted prerequisite section titles.

Security assessment

The changes are purely branding/naming convention updates (removing 'S3' from Glacier service references). No security vulnerabilities, encryption details, or access control changes were modified. The multipart upload process and checksum verification instructions remain 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 can upload an archive in Amazon S3 Glacier (S3 Glacier) by using the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI). To improve the upload experience for larger archives, S3 Glacier provides several API operations to support multipart uploads. By using these API operations, you can upload archives in parts. These parts can be uploaded independently, in any order, and in parallel. If a part upload fails, you need to upload only that part again, not the entire archive. You can use multipart uploads for archives from 1 byte to about 40,000 gibibytes (GiB) in size.
