Read more...Introduction Document management is a core requirement for all sorts of regulated institutions - finance, telecom, healthcare, government and others. These institutions need to manage and retain an ever growing number of documents and regulatory guidelines often require these documents to be stored for a very long term (7-10 years). Take for example, KYC (Know Your Customer) documents. Anyone starting

Nifi supports almost all the major enterprise data systems and allows users to create effective, fast, and scalable information flow systems. Creating data flow systems is simple with Nifi and there is a clear path to add support for systems not

Application development teams can now develop, test and deploy their apps in days, across different environments, all within their Kubernetes clusters. Previous generations of technology typically took weeks if not months. This acceleration is possible due to the abstraction that Kubernetes brings to the table, i.e. it deals
Read more...When early object storage APIs were developed they focused on the efficient storage and retrieval of objects. Amazon’s success with S3 and its implementation of the robust S3 API quickly became the de facto standard for object storage in the cloud. MinIO, recognizing this, invested heavily in creating the most compliant implementation of the S3 API outside of Amazon.

Read more...In this post we’ll learn more about object storage, specifically Minio and then see how to connect Minio with tools like Apache Spark and Presto for analytics workloads.
Read more...In the first part of this two post series, we’ll take a look at how object storage is different from other storage approaches and why it makes sense to leverage object storage like Minio for data lakes.
Read more...In this post, we learn about Pivotal Container Service deployment and how to use the pks command line tool to create and manage Kubernetes clusters. We also saw how to deploy Minio once your PKS Kubernetes cluster is set up and running.
Read more...In this post, we learn about why and how Presto is becoming the tool of choice when querying large datasets from platforms like MinIO. We then learn the steps to setup and deploy Presto on private infrastructure.
Read more...Minio now has built-in support for exporting Prometheus compatible data on an unauthenticated endpoint. This enables Prometheus monitoring for Minio server deployments without sharing server credentials and eliminates the need to run an external Prometheus exporter.
Read more...There has been a lot going on MinIO server development front. We recently added support for * Disk Caching [https://docs.minio.io/docs/minio-disk-cache-guide] * Large/Petascale buckets [https://docs.minio.io/docs/minio-large-bucket-support-quickstart-guide] * Storage Classes [https://github.com/minio/minio/tree/master/docs/erasure/storage-class] While features like MinIO bucket federation [https://github.com/minio/minio/pull/5501], revamped MinIO
Read more...ZFS is best known for abstracting away the physical storage device boundaries by pooling them together. ZFS completely removed the need to manually handle physical storage or worry about their individual capacities. ZFS is also a pioneer in its ability to detect data corruption and recover if data redundancy is available. However, as we already discussed [https://blog.minio.io/

As IoT brings thousands of devices online everyday, the data being generated by all these devices combined is reaching staggering levels. > Storing the IoT data in a scalable yet cost effective manner, while being able to analyze it

Read more...Containers running on orchestration platforms like Kubernetes, Docker Swarm, DC/OS et al. offer powerful, versatile ways to deploy applications. Containers let you deploy isolated application instances, and you can launch multiple such instances to scale up your load serving capacity. You don’t even need to worry about individual server capacities and scheduling thanks to orchestration tool, which provide

Oncologists order our blood test to help determine if their advanced cancer patients are eligible for certain drugs that target specific genomic alterations in tumour DNA. Each test produces huge amounts of genomic data that

However, behind the scenes, there was another switch happening. We used block based filesystem for underlying storage. However, as we grew, the filesystem was proving difficult to scale. So, we were looking to move from block based storage to an object store system,

Developers are architecting their modern applications from the ground-up to run in containers, which enables faster deployment and more resilience. Even legacy applications are adopting containers in every way they can to access these advantages. Of the many characteristics that make an application container ready, the way it
