Answer 1

Just to let you guys know what happened.
The problem was the region of my bucket was Frankfurt, which requires the newest version of authentication from Amazon AWS, version 4. As far as I can tell, the plugin aws-maven doesn't support this new version right now. So the solutions was to move my bucket to another region which support the older version of schemes, like US Standard. And everything seems to work fine now!
