Security Enhancements

The Amazon S3 access key/private key needs to be rotated every 90 days for security reasons. Sessions currently uses keys to access to AWS S3. This has been changed to use IAM Role and Instance Profile so as to reduce the effort to rotate the keys and also make the app more secure. The enhancement only affects OD deployment only.
