AWS SDK v3 support

[trangvu9]

Any roadmap to migrate to AWS SDK V3?

Please migrate your code to use AWS SDK for JavaScript (v3).                                                  
For more information, check the migration guide at https://a.co/7PzMCcy

I am also facing this issue

I was able to hack one up in typescript for non-temporary access keys (no tokens) using only v3 APIs. Needs additional work, but might start as a base.

2024 and this issue is still open.

[bhoudu]

is there any news about that?

2025 no update at all, is it dead AWS?
