[Provider]: Improve AWS provider happy path #26
Description
Request Type
Enhancement to existing provider
Provider / Platform
AWS
Use Case
Community users want to build AWS-first data products with the built-in AWS provider without needing to source-dive to understand setup gaps around setup, supported services, and the end-to-end workflow.
Technical Details
- Built-in provider entry point already exists for
aws. - AWS provider modules and many AWS tests are already present in the repo.
- Credentials and provider-action support already cover meaningful AWS surface area.
- This work should focus on completeness, clarity, and production readiness rather than a net-new provider implementation.
- Requested improvements:
- harden the AWS happy path from auth to validate, plan, apply, and verify
- improve guidance for region, identity, and secrets configuration
- clarify supported services and patterns such as S3, Glue, Athena, Redshift, and orchestration
- add more example contracts that show realistic AWS-first data products
- tighten docs so community users know what is already supported versus planned
