- Greater than or equal to 2, if `REDUCED_REDUNDANCY` parity is not set.
- Greater than `REDUCED_REDUNDANCY` parity, if it is set.

Parity blocks can not be higher than data blocks, so `STANDARD` storage class parity can not be higher than N/2. (N being total number of drives)

The default value for the `STANDARD` storage class depends on the number of volumes in the erasure set:

| Erasure Set Size | Default Parity (EC:N) |

## How to enable Fan-Out Uploads ?

Fan-Out uploads are automatically enabled if `x-minio-fanout-list` form-field is provided with the PostUpload API, to keep things simple higher level APIs are provided in our SDKs for example in `minio-go` SDK:

```
PutObjectFanOut(ctx context.Context, bucket string, fanOutContent io.Reader, fanOutReq minio.PutObjectFanOutRequest) ([]minio.PutObjectFanOutResponse, error)

container based compute environment. A cloud-native application is portable and resilient by design, and can scale horizontally by simply replicating. Modern orchestration platforms like Kubernetes, DC/OS make replicating and managing containers in huge clusters easier than ever.

While containers provide isolated application execution environment, orchestration platforms allow seamless scaling by helping replicate and manage containers. MinIO extends this by adding isolated storage environment...

This will allow normal write operations to take place on systems that exceed the write tolerance.

### DurationSeconds

The duration, in seconds. The value can range from 900 seconds (15 minutes) up to 365 days. If value is higher than this setting, then operation fails. By default, the value is set to 3600 seconds.
