I meant in AWS being able to use IAM authentication instead of username and
password.
I did a bit of digging and deployed Polaris and Postgres in Minikube.
For what I can see, Polaris in order to connect to Postgres needs the
connection details in a k8 secret file.
This is the object
{"relationalJdbc":{"secret":{"jdbcUrl":"jdbcUrl","name":null,"password":"password","username":"username"}},"type":"relational-jdbc”}
Is that correct? Am I missing something?
Thanks

Hi Fabio,
Polaris relies on Quarkus for JDBC datasource management [1].
By "passwordless" do you mean authentication based on the client's SSL
certificate?
I'd guess anything that a PostgreSQL driver can do, should be possible in
Quarkus. Helm charts may need changes to expose the necessary config.

Cheers,
Dmitri.
