## Architecture

Expansion of ellipses and choice of erasure sets based on this expansion is an automated process in MinIO. Here are some of the details of our underlying erasure coding behavior.

- Erasure coding used by MinIO is [Reed-Solomon](https://github.com/klauspost/reedsolomon) erasure coding scheme, which has a total shard maximum of 256 i.e 128 data and 128 parity. MinIO design goes beyond this limitation by doing some practical architecture choices.

## What is Erasure Code?

- Temporary credentials do not need to be stored with the application but are generated dynamically and provided to the application when requested. When (or even before) the temporary credentials expire, the application can request new credentials.

Following are advantages for using temporary credentials:

- Eliminates the need to embed long-term credentials with an application.

For distributed MinIO deployments, specify the *same* `MINIO_KMS_SECRET_KEY` for each MinIO server process.

At any point in time you can switch from `MINIO_KMS_SECRET_KEY` to a full KMS
deployment. You just need to import the generated key into KES - for example via
the KES CLI once you have successfully setup KES:

```sh
kes key create my-minio-key OSMM+vkKUTCvQs9YL/CVMIMt43HFhkUpqJxTmGl6rYw=
```

	if err = validateConfig(ctx, cfg, subSys); err != nil {

		var validationErr ldap.Validation
		if errors.As(err, &validationErr) {
			// If we got an LDAP validation error, we need to send appropriate
			// error message back to client (likely mc).
			writeCustomErrorResponseJSON(ctx, w, errorCodes.ToAPIErr(ErrAdminConfigLDAPValidation),
				validationErr.FormatError(), r.URL)
			return
		}

)

// SetCompressionConfig - One time migration code needed, for migrating from older config to new for Compression.
func SetCompressionConfig(s config.Config, cfg Config) {
	if !cfg.Enabled {
		// No need to save disabled settings in new config.
		return
	}
	s[config.CompressionSubSys][config.Default] = config.KVS{
		config.KV{
			Key:   config.Enable,
			Value: config.EnableOn,
		},

// printName prints the fields of a distinguished name, which include such
// things as its common name and locality.

## Highlights

- Supports source and destination buckets to have the same name unlike AWS S3, addresses variety of usecases such as *Splunk*, *Veeam* site to site DR.
