First introduced in late 2021, multi-site Active-Active Replication has grown to be one of the most impactful MinIO features. MinIO has long had the ability to replicate between buckets to synchronize objects, delete operations and metadata changes, but Multi-site Active-Active Replication goes beyond bucket replication to synchronize all buckets, IAM, security tokens, service accounts and bucket-level configurations. As businesses gather

There is a lot of momentum around Apache Arrow these days. A favorite of developers and data practitioners, its use in business-critical applications has grown considerably and data driven organizations like Dremio, InfluxData, Snowflake, Streamlit, and Tellius are all heavily invested. The drivers of this adoption are superior interoperability, simpler data architectures, greater speed and efficiency, more choice of tools

MinIO is a strong believer in transparency and data driven discussions. It is why we publish our benchmarks and challenge the rest of the industry to do so as well. It also is why we develop tools that allow a clean, clear measurement of performance and can be easily replicated. We want people to test for themselves. Further, we do

Cassandra is a popular, tried-and-true NoSQL database that supports key-value wide-column tables. Like any powerful tool, Cassandra has its ideal use cases - in particular, Cassandra excels at supporting write-heavy workloads, while having limitations when supporting read-heavy workloads. Cassandra's eventual consistency model and lack of transactions, multi-table support like joins, subqueries can also limit its usefulness. However, using

Over the last decade or so, object storage use cases have evolved considerably as they replace traditional file and block use cases. Specifically the need to work with small data objects is becoming commonplace. Yes, there’s still plenty of large objects but small objects are becoming more prevalent than large for specific workloads and application environments. Traditional object storage

The recent announcement from AWS about the general availability of their new ARM-powered Graviton2 servers caused us to take another look at the performance of these ARM servers. In this blog post we describe the results which you may find surprising. Introduction MinIO [https://github.com/minio/minio] is an Apache licensed, open source S3-compatible object storage server with a

As such any performance improvements that can be made to the MD5 hashing speed are worth considering. Due to recent improvements in SIMD processing (AVX2 and especially AVX512) we are providing a Go md5-simd

Almost all of the modern cloud-native applications use HTTPs as their primary transport mechanism even within the network. Every service is a collection of HTTPs endpoints provisioned dynamically at scale. Traditional load balancers that are built for serving web applications across the Internet are at a disadvantage here since they use old school DNS round-robin techniques for load balancing and
