Well. I have a minio instance running for static small sites, every time I wanted to create a new bucket I had to re-read my own notes and fiddle around for half an hour with s3cmd and mc before getting something live. Today I threw the things out and started using scp again. It's much easier, it's not in the way.
- Masterd089 5y agoHave you tried IaaC Tools like terraform?
- tluyben2 5y agoBut how is that easier than just uploading your files though? And it is more expensive, more overhead, more setup etc. Depends on the use case but for some things (like a personal or small company site), why would you over engineer it?
- johnchristopher 5y agoNo, I don't have yet a use-case for it. It'd be a bit overkill for what I need. I originally set up minio because I wanted to test out some backup solutions relying on S3 but I didn't want to use amazon (can't remember why). Turns out minio is great but not a 1:1 S3 clone and not every app can swap out amz for minio anyway. I was thinking reading about ansible soon though.
