AWS lightsail: Reorder and rename Lightsail blueprint listings

Service: lightsail · 2026-09-27 · Documentation low

File: lightsail/latest/userguide/compare-options-choose-lightsail-instance-image.md

Summary

Reorders OS/blueprint entries (Debian, FreeBSD, openSUSE, Ubuntu) and swaps the ordering/renames of blueprint sections (LAMP, Node.js, Nginx/LEMP), moving existing IMDSv2 enforcement notes along with the reordered content. No new security guidance is introduced.

Security assessment

The diff is a documentation reorganization: version lists are reordered and blueprint headings renamed (e.g., 'Node.js packaged by Bitnami' -> 'Node.js'). The IMDSv2 enforcement sentences appear only as moved lines (removed from one location, re-added in another), not as newly authored security content, and no specific vulnerability, CVE, or incident is referenced.
