Methodology snapshot

This page stays intentionally close to the source report.

Every catalog entry is populated from the uploaded AWS services research report. The page does not invent alternative maturity labels or hide lifecycle exceptions.

When the report flags source conflicts, retirement windows, region limits, or replacement guidance, that note is surfaced directly on the service card so learners can make safer architecture choices.
