+[EKS Pod Identity](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/containers/amazon-eks-pod-identity-a-new-way-for-applications-on-eks-to-obtain-iam-credentials/) is a feature of Amazon EKS that simplifies the process for cluster administrators to configure Kubernetes applications with AWS IAM permissions. A prerequisite for using the Pod Identity feature is running the Pod Identity agent on the worker nodes. AWS recommends you install the [Pod Identity Agent as an EKS Add-on](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/pod-id-agent-setup.html). Alternatively, you can self manage the add-on using the open source code in this repo.
 
 You can use AWS SDKs to receive temporary IAM permissions required to access various AWS services from your applications running on the EKS cluster. All AWS SDKs have a series of places (or sources) that they check in order to find valid credentials to use to make a request to an AWS service. After valid credentials are found, the search is stopped. This systematic search is called the default credential provider chain.  For more information about the Credential provider chain, refer to the [AWS SDKs and Tools Reference Guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdkref/latest/guide/standardized-credentials.html#credentialProviderChain).
