== Usage
-=== Amazon Kinesis Firehose configuration
+=== Static credentials vs Default Credential Provider
+
+You have the possibility of avoiding the usage of explicit static credentials,
by specifying the useDefaultCredentialsProvider option and set it to true.
+
+ - Java system properties - aws.accessKeyId and aws.secretKey
+ - Environment variables - AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY.
+ - Web Identity Token from AWS STS.
+ - The shared credentials and config files.
+ - Amazon ECS container credentials - loaded from the Amazon ECS if the
environment variable AWS_CONTAINER_CREDENTIALS_RELATIVE_URI is set.
+ - Amazon EC2 Instance profile credentials.
+For more information about this you can look at
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-java/latest/developer-guide/credentials.html[AWS
credentials documentation]

+=== Amazon Kinesis Firehose configuration
You then have to reference the FirehoseClient in the
`amazonKinesisFirehoseClient` URI option.
