AWS DataSync Now Supports OIDC for Google Cloud and Azure

AWS DataSync Enhanced mode now lets you authenticate to Google Cloud Storage and Microsoft Azure Blob Storage using OpenID Connect (OIDC), ditching those pesky long-term credentials like HMAC keys and SAS tokens. Your IAM role handles the short-lived credentials automatically, so you can move data across clouds securely without breaking your security policies—available across all AWS Regions supporting DataSync Enhanced mode.
