AWS managedservices documentation change
Summary
Updated documentation to replace all references of 'AppStream 2.0' with 'WorkSpaces Applications', including service name changes in titles, descriptions, FAQs, and documentation links while maintaining the same technical processes.
Security assessment
The changes appear to be a rebranding/renaming exercise from AppStream 2.0 to WorkSpaces Applications without altering security controls or addressing vulnerabilities. No security vulnerabilities or mitigations are mentioned. Existing security-related content (IAM roles, VPC endpoints, Active Directory integration) remains functionally unchanged except for service name updates.
