Description

S3 Storage for Model metadata storage in AWS S3 currently uses ProfileCredentialsProvider with the default profile. Switching to DefaultAWSCredentialsProviderChain which also includes ProfileCredentialsProvider as one step to get credentials,is a more flexible solution.

It also allows e.g. for AWS Instance Profile Roles and thus is more flexible and does not force developers to include credentials on their PredictionIO machines.
