August 3rd 2021: Add IoT Data Plane and an Async Caching Credentials Provider

IoT Data Plane is now available! If you discover it isn't functioning as expected, please let us know!

This week also sees the addition of a robust async caching credentials provider. Take a look at the STS example to see how to use it.

To upgrade to the new release, update tag to v0.0.14-alpha:

[dependencies]
# eg. S3:
aws-sdk-s3 = { git = "https://github.com/awslabs/aws-sdk-rust", tag = "v0.0.14-alpha" }

New This Week

• 🎉 Add IoT Data Plane (smithy-rs#624)
• 🎉 Add LazyCachingCredentialsProvider to aws-auth for use with expiring credentials, such as STS AssumeRole. Update STS example to use this new provider (smithy-rs#578, smithy-rs#595)
• 🐛 Correctly encode HTTP Checksums using base64 instead of hex. Fixes #164. (smithy-rs#615)
• Overhaul serialization/deserialization of numeric/boolean types. This resolves issues around serialization of NaN/Infinity and should also reduce the number of allocations required during serialization. (smithy-rs#618)
• Update SQS example to clarify usage of FIFO vs. standard queues (#162, @trevorrobertsjr)
