We were delighted to take home Datanami's Readers Choice award for Best Storage
Solution this year [https://www.datanami.com/2021-readers-choice-awards/10/].
This is the sixth year the award has been given and it has quickly grown into
one of the major prizes in storage recognition. As they say in English football
- "an award worth winning.

With today’s announcement of Starburst’s support for MinIO, it made sense to revisit the architectural trends that are becoming the standard for analytics workloads. Starburst provides a perfect example as we shall see shortly.
The architecture follows the model of disaggregating storage and compute. Modern, high speed networks have obsoleted the old approaches espoused by the many defunct

Security is paramount at MinIO and sits up there with performance, simplicity
and resilience in the pantheon of things that matter.
MinIO encrypts data when stored on disk and when transmitted over the network.
MinIO’s state-of-the-art encryption schemes support granular object-level
encryption using modern, industry-standard encryption algorithms, such as
AES-256-GCM, ChaCha20-Poly1305, and AES-CBC. MinIO is fully compatible with S3

Let’s get a few things out there right away.
First, Kubecon remains a shadow of its former self. In 2019 it was vibrant, even frothy. It was pretty sad this week in LA. The forecast was for 3,000 but we would be surprised if it was 2,000. My sense talking to others on the sponsor side was

As we have noted before, one of the great advantages of being cloud native is
that integrations are generally pretty seamless. We don’t want to oversimplify,
engineering is engineering, but as a rule this makes putting different pieces
together easier and more impactful.
One such example is our work with Pulumi [https://www.pulumi.com/]. Pulumi
enables cloud engineering

MinIO takes particular pride in the concept of manageability. This is born out of our relentless focus on simplicity. Our belief is that a single individual with moderate technical capability should be able to manage a multi-petabyte instance of MinIO in their free time.

The current generation of edge computing is still in its infancy. This is a remarkable statement given its size today ($6 billion) and expectations for growth ($61 billion by 2028). Nonetheless, with 5G just taking hold and the Internet of Things (IoT) economy exploding, the truth is we don’t really know how big it may become, or how quickly.

Synchronizing data between multiple data centers is a core competency of any object storage service. MinIO already checked this box with its performance optimized Server-Side Active-Active Bucket Replication. Initially, MinIO only recommended two MinIO deployments.
Active-Active replication supports scenarios such as:
* Same-DC Replication
* Cross-DC Replication
* Same-Region Replication
* Cross-Region Replication
Active-Active replication is a key tool for organizations looking for multi

The push to standardize Object Storage in Kubernetes has gained significant
momentum in the recent months. The new standard, named COSI for Container Object
Storage Interface, strikes a similar chord to CSI — a well known standard for
consuming storage in Kubernetes.
In this article, I’ll dive into COSI, its architecture, and how it fits
alongside CSI. Finally, I’ll

Streaming data is a core component of the modern object storage stack. Whether
the source of that data is an edge device or an application running in the
datacenter, streaming data is quickly outpacing traditional batch processing
frameworks.
Streaming data includes everything from log files (think Splunk SmartStore), web
or mobile applications, autonomous vehicles, social networks and, of course
financial
