> @xiaoxuandev The [default credential provider chain](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-java/latest/developer-guide/credentials-chain.html) supports setting these values via environment variable which would be the recommended way to do this via k8s pod configuration. I don't think it's a good idea to support this. Thanks @danielcweeks, while environment variables work in Kubernetes, they aren’t always the best solution for all deployment scenarios, especially when users need credentials different from those set in the environment. Supporting alternative configuration methods provides flexibility for local development, CI/CD pipelines, and hybrid cloud environments. Similar use case, when users leveraging `ProfileCredentialsProvider` from default chain may have multiple AWS profiles and need to select a specific one. Additionally, many AWS services and SDKs support explicit credential configuration alongside other methods, ensuring a consistent and user-friendly experience.
