### 2. Run MinIO in federated mode

Bucket lookup from DNS federation requires two dependencies

- etcd (for bucket DNS service records)
- CoreDNS (for DNS management based on populated bucket DNS service records, optional)

## Architecture

![bucket-lookup](https://github.com/minio/minio/blob/master/docs/federation/lookup/bucket-lookup.png?raw=true)

### Environment variables

#### MINIO_ETCD_ENDPOINTS

	# endpoint: ENDPOINT
	# credentials:
	#   accessKey: ACCESS-KEY
	#   secretKey: SECRET-KEY
	#   sessionToken: SESSION-TOKEN # Available when rotating credentials are used

  # optional flags based filtering criteria
  # for all source objects
  flags:
	filter:
	  newerThan: "7d" # match objects newer than this value (e.g. 7d10h31s)
	  olderThan: "7d" # match objects older than this value (e.g. 7d10h31s)

  scheme: http
  static_configs:
  - targets: ['localhost:9000']
```

##### Node centric (optional)

```yaml
- job_name: minio-job-node
  bearer_token: <secret>
  metrics_path: /minio/v2/metrics/node
  scheme: http
  static_configs:
  - targets: ['localhost:9000']
```

##### Resource centric (optional)

```yaml
- job_name: minio-job-resource
  bearer_token: <secret>

```
KEY:
notify_elasticsearch[:name]  publish bucket notifications to Elasticsearch endpoints

ARGS:
url*         (url)                Elasticsearch server's address, with optional authentication info
index*       (string)             Elasticsearch index to store/update events, index is auto-created

To get a connection to a specific server, use `Manager.Connection(host)` to get a connection to the specified host.
From this connection individual requests can be made.

Each handler, with optional subroutes can be registered with the manager using 
`Manager.RegisterXHandler(handlerID, handler, subroutes...)`.

A `Handler()` function provides an HTTP handler, which should be hooked up to the appropriate route on the server.

Note: there are still some cluster roles that may need to be fixed, most likely cluster permissions
will need to move to the security component.

## Everything is Optional

Each component in the new installer is optional. Users can install the component defined in the new installer,
use the equivalent component in `istio-system`, configured with the official installer, or use a different
version or implementation.

  assertEquals("hello, world!", chat.messages());

  chat.loadMore();
  chat.loadMore();
  assertEquals(""
      + "hello, world!\n"
      + "sup, bra?\n"
      + "yo dog", chat.messages());

  // Optional: confirm that your app made the HTTP requests you were expecting.
  RecordedRequest request1 = server.takeRequest();
  assertEquals("/v1/chat/messages/", request1.getPath());
  assertNotNull(request1.getHeader("Authorization"));

    * If it is not, the client will see a useful, clear error.
* Check if there is an optional query parameter named `q` (as in `http://127.0.0.1:8000/items/foo?q=somequery`) for `GET` requests.
    * As the `q` parameter is declared with `= None`, it is optional.
    * Without the `None` it would be required (as is the body in the case with `PUT`).

# In how many days, counting from today, this certificate will expire.

# X.509 v3 extensions

# DNS name(s) of the server

# (Optional) Server IP address
