Using workload identity federation, your application can access Google Cloud resources from Amazon Web Services (AWS),
Microsoft Azure or any identity provider that supports OpenID Connect (OIDC).

Using identity federation, you can allow your workload to impersonate a service account. This lets you access Google Cloud resources directly, eliminating the maintenance and security burden associated with service account keys.
