Description
## Summary
Some users prefer to use IAM Instance Roles instead of using ACCESS_KEY & SECRET_KEY when accessing AWS services. This ensures that the keys are constantly getting rotated and also avoids having to expose these keys to any particular service running on the particular instance.
Integrations where this is needed: DynamoDB, S3, SMTP (to use SES). Stretch: RDS databases, and Redis (when using Elasticache).
