 Opensearch-py client library also provides an in-house IAM based authentication feature, `AWSV4SignerAuth` that will help users to connect to their opensearch clusters by making use of IAM roles.
 
+`AWSV4SignerAuth` uses RequestHttpConnection as transport class for communication with opensearch clusters. Opensearch-py client library provides `pool_maxsize` option to modify default connection-pool size.

 #### Pre-requisites to use `AWSV4SignerAuth`
  - Python version 3.6 or above,
  - Install [botocore](https://pypi.org/project/botocore/) using pip
