> h2. Current situation:
> FlinkKinesisProducer can authenticate with Kinesis by retrieving credentials via one of the following mechanisms:
>  * Environment variables
>  * System properties
>  * An AWS profile
>  * Directly provided credentials (\{{BASIC}})
>  * AWS's own default heuristic (\{{AUTO}})
> For streaming across AWS accounts, it is considered good practise to enable access to the remote Kinesis stream via a role, rather than passing credentials for the remote account.
> h2. Proposed change:
> Add a new credentials provider specifying a role ARN, session name, and an additional credentials provider supplying the credentials for assuming the role.
> Config example for assuming role {{<role-arn>}} with auto-detected credentials:{{}}
> {code:java}
> aws.credentials.provider: ASSUME_ROLE
> aws.credentials.provider.role.arn: <role-arn>
> aws.credentials.provider.role.sessionName: my-session-name
> aws.credentials.provider.role.provider: AUTO
> {code}
> {{ASSUME_ROLE}} credentials providers can be nested, i.e. it is possible to assume a role which in turn is allowed to assume another role:
> {code:java}
> aws.credentials.provider: ASSUME_ROLE
> aws.credentials.provider.role.arn: <role-arn>
> aws.credentials.provider.role.sessionName: my-session-name
> aws.credentials.provider.role.provider: ASSUME_ROLE
> aws.credentials.provider.role.provider.role.arn: <nested-role-arn>
> aws.credentials.provider.role.provider.role.sessionName: my-nested-session-name
> aws.credentials.provider.role.provider.role.provider: AUTO
> {code}
