    Description

      The AWS libraries used by S3_PING do not support authenticating into the AWS API via the EC2 instance profile (implicit credentials stored on the AWS EC2 instance).
      The AWS SDK for Java supports instance profile. This eliminates the need for storing AWS access keys in config files.

      Are there any plans to add official support for this in JGroups?

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.
