AWS amazonglacier documentation change
Summary
Updated branding from 'Glacier' to 'Amazon Glacier', added deprecation notice for standalone Amazon Glacier service (no new customers after 2025), and emphasized migration to S3 Glacier storage classes.
Security assessment
Changes focus on service naming consistency, deprecation announcements, and migration guidance. While the notice mentions data remains 'secure', this is a general assurance rather than addressing a specific security vulnerability. No security patches, vulnerabilities, or new security features are documented.

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.
