If any controller service optionally supported this external service ( like the AWS processors optional support the credentials service ) then there is no need for the processor to change though right?

The current API has no way to pass information between the processor and service. The options boil down to... - Make a new API, but then you need all new processors that use the new API - Modify the current API to have a new method, but then we are combing two concepts into one API and some impls may not implement both - Modify the processors to use two different service APIs, but enforce that only one can be used at a time, so it can have either the original connection pool service or can have some new dynamic connection factory, but not both, and then modify all DB processors to have logic to determine which service to use.
