<!-- .. up to 10 prefixes in all -->
</VersioningConfiguration>
```

### Features

- Objects matching these prefixes will behave as though versioning were suspended. These objects **will not** be replicated if bucket has replication configured.
- Objects matching these prefixes will also not leave `null` delete markers, dramatically reduces namespace pollution while keeping the benefits of replication.

### Interaction with extended Bucket Versioning configuration

When Bucket Versioning with excluded prefixes are configured objects matching these prefixes are excluded from being versioned and replicated.

## 1. Standalone Deployment

To host multiple tenants on a single machine, run one MinIO Server per tenant with a dedicated HTTPS port, configuration, and data directory.

### 1.1 Host Multiple Tenants on a Single Drive

Use the following commands to host 3 tenants on a single drive:

```sh

Connected to localhost.
sftp> ls runner/
chunkdocs  testdir
```

Following example shows how to download an object locally via `sftp` client:

```
sftp> get runner/chunkdocs/metadata metadata
Fetching /runner/chunkdocs/metadata to metadata

Upload this object to the bucket via `mc cp`
```
mc cp testobject myminio/functionbucket/
```

## 1. Prerequisites

* Familiarity with [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/overview/).
* Docker installed on your machine. Download the relevant installer from [here](https://www.docker.com/community-edition#/download).

## 2. Run Distributed MinIO on Docker Compose

MinIO uses [`klauspost/compress/s2`](https://github.com/klauspost/compress/tree/master/s2)
streaming compression due to its stability and performance.

This algorithm is specifically optimized for machine generated content.
Write throughput is typically at least 500MB/s per CPU core,
and scales with the number of available CPU cores.
Decompression speed is typically at least 1GB/s.
