AWS AmazonElastiCache documentation change

Service: AmazonElastiCache · 2026-04-25 · Documentation low

File: AmazonElastiCache/latest/dg/connect-tls.md

Summary

Added installation instructions for valkey-cli on Amazon Linux 2023 to support TLS connections to Valkey/Redis clusters.

Security assessment

This change provides routine installation instructions for a new operating system version. While it relates to TLS connectivity (a security feature), the change itself is a documentation update for building the client tool and doesn't address any security vulnerability or add new security documentation.
