**Tell us about your request**

Feature parity with the [Java](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-java/v1/developer-guide/section-client-configuration.html) and other SDKs which allow for customizing of timeouts on the http transport client.

- [x] Connect Timeout
- [ ] Keep-alive Timeout
- [x] Socket Timeout
- [ ] Total Transfer Timeout
- [x] Retry Strategy

**Tell us about the problem you're trying to solve. What are you trying to do, and why is it hard?**

It is desirable to use aggressive timeouts or shorter timeouts than hidden defaults for performance and availability, such that you can retry to a different region rather than against the same bucket in the event of a high latency, or high loss connection.

**Are you currently working around this issue?**

Not currently working around this.

**Additional context**

Feature parity on client configuration with other SDKs will allow for migration to rust.

**Attachments**

Research direction

Start by comparing the Rust SDK's current client configuration with the linked Java client-configuration documentation. Identify which connect, keep-alive, socket, total-transfer timeout, and retry-strategy options are in scope, then establish how the requested configuration should behave across regions. Done requires an agreed implementation scope and validation for the supported options.
