AWS amazonglacier documentation change
Summary
Updated documentation to reflect Amazon Glacier service branding changes, added deprecation notice for new customers after 2025, and redirected users to S3 Glacier storage classes
Security assessment
The changes primarily focus on service naming consistency and deprecation notices. While the update mentions existing data remains 'secure and accessible', this is a general assurance rather than addressing a specific security vulnerability. The recommendation to use S3 Glacier storage classes references 'advanced optional encryption features' but does not introduce new security documentation in this specific file.

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.
