Liferay DXP 7.4 on EKS and IAM roles for AWs RDS PostgreSQL connectivity

Hello All,

I am not a Liferay expert but from infosec with focus on Identity and Access Management.

Our liferay team is migrating the on-prem Liferay instance to run on EKS using AWS RDS Postgres. Our guidance is to use IAM roles for authentication. Upon reading blog posts, i see that the AWS advanced JDBC wrapper can be leveraged by Liferay Pod in EKS to connect to the backend RDs PostgreSQL in AWS using IAM roles. I am sure many others would have attempted this too. Are there any blog posts or samples that i can refer to for learning more on this and guide our liferay team?
