AWS AmazonElastiCache documentation change
Summary
Updated documentation links with corrected URL formatting (added double slashes after domain) and added new section recommending temporary credentials for programmatic access via AWS CLI/SDKs
Security assessment
The change adds a recommended security practice to use temporary credentials instead of long-term credentials for programmatic access, which improves security posture but does not address a specific disclosed vulnerability. URL corrections are formatting fixes without security implications.
