The Java driver of MongoDB is able to authenticate to a MongoDB instance via AWS IAM.
This has the benefit that no username/password, so no credentials have to be configured, rotated, etc.
The default way of doing this authentication however is to add the aws sdk for Java - which has a lot of transitive dependencies.
So the preferred way of doing this authentication would instead be to do a single HTTP API call to the AWS IAM API in order to assume a role.
