   @Kami Does it make sense to add support for retrieving keys from instance metadata as a part of the library for every provider where it makes sense? I could review and propose an MR. If you don't want to have it in the library then let me know

   Thanks!

   @denyszhak you can try this code to use the credentials from an IAM instance profile on EC2:

   import boto3
   from libcloud.storage.types import Provider
   from libcloud.storage.providers import get_driver
   
   session = boto3.Session()
   credentials = session.get_credentials().get_frozen_credentials()
   cls = get_driver(Provider.S3)
   driver = cls(region="region", key=credentials.access_key, secret=credentials.secret_key, token=credentials.token)

   If you have some long-running operations that use this libcloud driver, you might have to refresh the credentials, though.

   Is there a fix for this problem? I know we can use boto3 to get the credentials, but at that point, I might as well use boto3 all the way and remove libcloud, which is not what I want to do. Any suggestions?
