AWS prometheus documentation change

Service: prometheus · 2026-05-22 · Documentation low

File: prometheus/latest/userguide/AMP-troubleshooting.md

Summary

Added documentation for handling out-of-order samples including configuration options, new error types ('sample-too-old', 'out-of-order-rate-limit'), and rate limit references.

Security assessment

The changes enhance operational documentation for data ingestion but contain no security-specific content. The added rate limit reference relates to service quotas, not security controls. No vulnerabilities or security features are mentioned.
