object in one bucket. For example, you could store `spark.csv` (version `ede336f2`) and `spark.csv` (version `fae684da`) in a single bucket. Versioning protects you from unintended overwrites, deletions, protect objects with retention policies.

To control data retention and storage usage, use object versioning with [object lifecycle management](https://github.com/minio/minio/blob/master/docs/bucket/lifecycle/README.md).  If you have an object expiration lifecycle policy in your non-versioned...

## How to enable Fan-Out Uploads ?

- In `Compliance` mode, objects cannot be deleted by anyone until retention period has expired for the given version id. If user has governance bypass permissions, an object's retention date can be extended in `Compliance` mode.
- Once object lock configuration is set to a bucket
  - New objects inherit the retention settings of the bucket object lock configuration automatically
  - Retention headers can be optionally set while uploading objects

## 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.
- Supports object locking/retention across source and destination buckets natively out of the box, unlike AWS S3.

- Creation and deletion of service accounts (except those owned by the root user)
- Changes to Bucket features such as:
  - Bucket Policies
  - Bucket Tags
  - Bucket Object-Lock configurations (including retention and legal hold configuration)
  - Bucket Encryption configuration

> NOTE: Bucket versioning is automatically enabled for all new and existing buckets on all replicated sites.
