Extend authentication methods for AWS resources integrated with ACE

Current implementation for authentication to AWS resources like S3 requires IAM AccessID and secret.  These are long-lived credentials, and they require rotation as per our security posture. At scale this could pose an issue and result in redeployments of the applications. This is not ideal and imposes significant work to automate this process.

 

The ask is to add OIDC authentication for AWS resources to allow for short-lived credentials and eliminate the need for secret rotation.

    Moving to Under Review status. Thank you for raising this enhancement for support of wider authentication types in the AWS connector. Passing to @Varun Jain for consideration which will likely be made in combination given these requests in similar areas:
