AWS prescriptive-guidance documentation change

Service: prescriptive-guidance · 2026-07-10 · Documentation low

File: prescriptive-guidance/latest/migration-replatforming-cots-applications/updating-logging-monitoring.md

Summary

Updated documentation links and fixed URL formatting for CloudWatch references. Corrected punctuation in SolarWinds link. Changed navigation link from welcome.html to introduction.html.

Security assessment

The changes primarily involve URL formatting corrections and navigation structure updates. While the SolarWinds reference might raise security awareness due to historical incidents, the change itself only adds a comma and does not address security aspects. The CloudWatch monitoring recommendations remain unchanged in substance.
