AWS quick documentation change
Summary
Updated documentation for Amazon Quick index capacity management, changing from extracted text measurement to original file size storage, introducing per-user storage allocations based on subscription tiers (Professional/Enterprise), updating capacity limits from 25-60,000 MB to 0.25 GB-2 TB, and adding new sections on storage allocation, regional allocation, and manual/auto-scaling.
Security assessment
The changes are focused on billing model updates, capacity measurement changes (from extracted text to original file size), and scaling limit increases. There is no evidence of addressing security vulnerabilities, patching security issues, or documenting security incidents. The changes appear to be routine feature updates and documentation restructuring for capacity management and billing.
