Yoann Rodière ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?accountId=557058%... ) *commented* on HSEARCH-3560 ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HSEARCH-3560?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiYWM... ) Re: Elasticsearch AWS should support AWS Credential Providers for authentication ( https://hibernate.atlassian.net/browse/HSEARCH-3560?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiYWM... ) Nothing new here, no. If you're interested and you need it urgently, you can have a look at converting the hibernate-search-backend-elasticsearch-aws module to use the official AWS SDK instead of the current (minimal) library. The code is here: https://github.com/hibernate/hibernate-search/tree/master/backend/elastic... and the contribution guide is here: https://github.com/hibernate/hibernate-search/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md. Then, you'll probably be able to add new ways to provide credentials. I believe the AWS SDK supports various solutions, including environment variables.
