EC2 Metadata service mocking with Docker

og:description

My former employer quietly open sourced a handy utility for mocking out the metadata service on AWS’ EC2 hosts a few weeks ago. As I’ve mentioned previously, there are a few projects in this space, but none quite as simple as this one to get going. ectou-metadata includes an implementation of the IAM security credential API that, to applications, feels exactly like running on an EC2 instance launched with an IAM Role. This means no more injecting credentials into containers needing AWS API access. It also helps increase dev prod parity.
