- Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) – Defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) as an
  extended version of SSH 2.0, allowing file transfer over SSH and for use with Transport Layer
  Security (TLS) and VPN applications.

- File Transfer Protocol over SSL/TLS (FTPS) – Encrypted FTP communication via TLS certificates.

- File Transfer Protocol (FTP) – Defined by RFC114 originally, and replaced by RFC765 and RFC959

### How does ``MinIO`` manage dependencies?

``MinIO`` uses `go mod` to manage its dependencies.

- Run `go get foo/bar` in the source folder to add the dependency to `go.mod` file.

To remove a dependency

- Edit your code and remove the import reference.
- Run `go mod tidy` in the source folder to remove dependency from `go.mod` file.

### What are the coding guidelines for MinIO?

A non-current object version is a version which is not the latest for a given object. It is possible to set up an automatic removal of non-current versions when a version becomes older than a given number of days.

e.g., To scan objects stored under `user-uploads/` prefix and remove versions older than one year.

```
{
    "Rules": [
        {
            "ID": "Removing all old versions",
            "Filter": {

  # 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)
	  createdAfter: "date" # match objects created after "date"
	  createdBefore: "date" # match objects created before "date"

	  ## NOTE: tags are not supported when "source" is remote.

## v1.0-v1.2 Versions

`xl.meta` carries three types of object entries which designate the type of version object stored.

- ObjectType (default)
- LegacyObjectType (preserves existing deployments and older xl.json format)
- DeleteMarker (a versionId to capture the DELETE sequences implemented primarily for AWS spec compatibility)

- To be able to easily get the temporary credentials to upload to a prefix. Make it possible for a client to upload a whole folder using the session. The server side applications need not create a presigned URL and serve to the client for each file. Since, the client would have the session it can do it by itself.
