I'm looking into Amazon Aurora DSQL and came across the fact that identity tokens have expiration dates. Can anyone explain why this is the case? Additionally, how can I implement a reliable reconnection mechanism when the token expires?

It would be great if they offered a DataAPI that links the session to the Role's expiration time. That way, you'd eliminate the need for a PostgreSQL client and could just use the AWS SDK in your preferred programming language.
Identity tokens in Aurora are designed to be temporary. This means they have a short lifespan which enhances security by reducing the risk of token leakage. Instead of relying on long-lived credentials that can be exposed, these short-lived tokens help ensure safe, controlled access to the database.
