Summary

Added placeholder redirect and updated terminology (AWS Lambda to Lambda, SNS to Amazon SNS) in cross-region delivery documentation

Security assessment

The changes are minor terminology updates (branding consistency) and addition of a placeholder link. No security vulnerabilities are addressed. The content describes cross-region delivery limitations which is a feature limitation, not a security issue.
