Summary

Added information about immediate resource discovery availability and corrected capitalization in 'AWS managed views' references

Security assessment

The changes primarily document a new immediate discovery capability and fix capitalization consistency. There is no mention of security vulnerabilities, access controls, or policy changes. The requirement to delete managed views before service turn-off appears to be a standard operational prerequisite rather than a security measure.
