AWS fsx documentation change

Service: fsx · 2025-11-19 · Documentation low

File: fsx/latest/WindowsGuide/automate-storage-capacity-increase.md

Summary

Updated documentation to remove redundant 'AWS' prefix from CloudFormation references throughout the document

Security assessment

The changes are purely branding/naming convention updates (changing 'AWS CloudFormation' to 'CloudFormation'). No security-related content was added, modified, or removed. The documentation continues to describe the same automated storage scaling solution without any changes to security aspects like IAM roles, permissions, or encryption.

-As an alternative to manually increasing your FSx for Windows File Server file system's storage capacity as the amount of data stored increases, you can use a AWS CloudFormation template to increase storage automatically. The solution presented in the this section dynamically increases a file system's storage capacity when the amount of free storage capacity falls below a defined threshold that you specify.
