-    """Abstract base class for providing storage options to LanceDB tables.
-
-    Storage options providers enable automatic credential refresh for cloud
-    storage backends (e.g., AWS S3, Azure Blob Storage, GCS). When credentials
-    have an expiration time, the provider's fetch_storage_options() method will
-    be called periodically to get fresh credentials before they expire.
-
-    Example
-    -------
-    >>> class MyProvider(StorageOptionsProvider):
-    ...     def fetch_storage_options(self) -> Dict[str, str]:
-    ...         # Fetch fresh credentials from your credential manager
-    ...         return {
-    ...             "aws_access_key_id": "...",
-    ...             "aws_secret_access_key": "...",
-    ...             "expires_at_millis": "1234567890000"  # Optional

-        credentials before that time. If the key is not present, credentials
-        are assumed to not expire.
