------------------------------------
Summary: Allow Kinesis configuration to get credentials from AWS
Metadata
Key: FLINK-4222
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-4222
Project: Flink
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Streaming Connectors
Affects Versions: 1.0.3
Reporter: Nick Chadwick
Priority: Minor
When deploying Flink TaskManagers in an EC2 environment, it would be nice to be
able to use the EC2 IAM Role credentials provided by the EC2 Metadata service.
This allows for credentials to be automatically discovered by services running
on EC2 instances at runtime, and removes the need to explicitly create and
assign credentials to TaskManagers.
This should be a fairly small change to the configuration of the
flink-connector-kinesis, which will greatly improve the ease of deployment to
Amazon EC2
