My question is that given this, do you plan to still stick with MinIO (I'm assuming that whatever they charge in licensing is probably trivial cost-wise when you are at a company setting up 10s of PiB of object storage), switch to the forked one that still has the features, or switch to another solution entirely?
- mattbee 1y agoMy client pays every other equipment vendor for annual support but minio quoted millions of dollars per year, which was too much. Ceph seems like the only battle-tested alternative. It has a community around it, but the setup is more demanding than minio.
- pas 1y agoCeph setup has a few magic moments, but after you accept and learn those incantation, it just works! Highly recommend. Used to be easy to get started with their all-in-one container image.
- xnyan 1y agoCeph is demanding to learn, but once you do It Just Works very reliably. The cephadm tool makes it quite easy to bootstrap and manage a vanilla cluster, I'd highly recommend bootstrapping a toy cluster with it if you're interested in learning. Everything can run in a container, and there's a decent webui that's useful for learning and visualization.
