/**
 * {@code Param} is used to signal that the annotated field should be
 * populated with a value retrieved from a parameter store through a {@link ParamProvider}.
 *
 * <p>By default {@code Param} use {@link SSMProvider} as parameter provider. This can be overridden specifying
 * the annotation variable {@code Param(provider = <Class-of-the-provider>)}.<br/>
 * The library provide a provider for AWS System Manager Parameters Store ({@link SSMProvider}) and a provider
 * for AWS Secrets Manager ({@link SecretsProvider}).
 * The user can implement a custom provider by extending the abstract class {@link BaseProvider}.</p>
 *
 * <p>If the parameter value requires transformation before being assigned to the annotated field
 * users can specify a {@link Transformer}
