Not really the point of your comment, but...

The GKE equivalent of EKS IRSA is GKE Workload Identity.

It's pretty much the same user experience:

* Enable Workload Identity on your cluster

* Create a GCP service account

* Grant your Kubernetes service account permission to act as the GCP service account.

It's a bit more seamless because you don't need to upgrade your client libraries. Instead there is an on-node metadata server that provides access tokens to workloads.

Thanks. I may have to work on this pretty soon!
