Configure + firewalls so Polaris can reach the base URI you provide in the connection config. +- **Authentication:** Polaris forwards requests using the credentials defined in + `connectionConfigInfo.authenticationParameters`. OAuth2 client credentials, bearer tokens, and AWS + SigV4 are supported; choose the scheme the remote service expects. +- **Service identity (SigV4 only):** When using SigV4, set `polaris.service-identity.<realm>.aws-iam.*` + so Polaris can assume the IAM role referenced by the connection’s `serviceIdentity` block. +- **Object storage access:** Polaris still writes Iceberg metadata locally when brokering commits, so Review Comment: Good point, let remove this part. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
