             Summary: Support default aws credential provider chain
                 Key: JCR-3914
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-3914
             Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler
            Priority: Blocker


The aws s3 support (jackrabbit-aws-ext module) only supports providing the 
credentials through a file and through an OSGi configuration. However, in 
general all aws related services provide more configuration values, especially 
when running aws it makes sense to support the metadata service.
I suggest therefore to use 
com.amazonaws.auth.DefaultAWSCredentialsProviderChain.
Similar goes for the region, when running in aws, 
Region region = Regions.getCurrentRegion();
provides automatically the correct region.

An OSGi configuration can be used for compatibility or testing to override 
things
