AWS amazonglacier documentation change
Summary
Updated service name references from 'Glacier' to 'Amazon Glacier' and added deprecation notice for the standalone Glacier service, recommending migration to S3 Glacier storage classes.
Security assessment
The changes primarily involve branding updates (correcting service name references) and announcing service deprecation/migration guidance. There is no mention of security vulnerabilities, patches, or explicit security enhancements. The deprecation notice focuses on service lifecycle and feature recommendations, not security risks.

Amazon Glacier is a standalone service with its own APIs that stores data in vaults and is distinct from Amazon S3 and the Amazon S3 Glacier storage classes. Your existing data will remain secure and accessible in Amazon Glacier indefinitely. No migration is required. For low-cost, long-term archival storage, AWS recommends the [Amazon S3 Glacier storage classes](https://aws.amazon.com/s3/storage-classes/glacier/), which deliver a superior customer experience with S3 bucket-based APIs, full AWS Region availability, lower costs, and AWS service integration. If you want enhanced capabilities, consider migrating to Amazon S3 Glacier storage classes by using our [AWS Solutions Guidance for transferring data from Amazon Glacier vaults to Amazon S3 Glacier storage classes](https://aws.amazon.com/solutions/guidance/data-transfer-from-amazon-s3-glacier-vaults-to-amazon-s3/). @@ -26 +28 @@ You can set a notification configuration on a vault so that when a job is comple - * Configuring Vault Notifications in Glacier: General Concepts + * Configuring Vault Notifications in Amazon Glacier: General Concepts @@ -32 +34 @@ You can set a notification configuration on a vault so that when a job is comple - * [Configuring Vault Notifications in Glacier Using the REST API](./configuring-notifications-rest-api.html) + * [Configuring Vault Notifications in Amazon Glacier Using the REST API](./configuring-notifications-rest-api.html) @@ -34 +36 @@ You can set a notification configuration on a vault so that when a job is comple - * [Configuring Vault Notifications by Using the Glacier Console](./configuring-notifications-console.html) + * [Configuring Vault Notifications by Using the Amazon Glacier Console](./configuring-notifications-console.html) @@ -41 +43 @@ You can set a notification configuration on a vault so that when a job is comple -## Configuring Vault Notifications in Glacier: General Concepts +## Configuring Vault Notifications in Amazon Glacier: General Concepts @@ -43 +45 @@ You can set a notification configuration on a vault so that when a job is comple -A Glacier retrieval job request is run asynchronously.
