## Why is MinIO cloud-native?

MinIO is a high performance distributed object storage server, designed for large-scale private cloud infrastructure. MinIO is designed in a cloud-native manner to scale sustainably in multi-tenant environments. Orchestration platforms like Kubernetes provide perfect cloud-native environment to deploy and scale MinIO.

## MinIO Deployment on Kubernetes

There are multiple options to deploy MinIO on Kubernetes:

MinIO server allows to throttle incoming requests:

- limit the number of active requests allowed across the cluster
- limit the wait duration for each request in the queue

These values are enabled using server's configuration or environment variables.

## Examples

### Configuring connection limit

> NOTE: make sure your AD/Windows user has write permissions to *D:\data* prior to using `credentialspec=`.

```powershell
docker run \

# **Disaggregated HDP Spark and Hive with MinIO**

## **1. Cloud-native Architecture**

![cloud-native](https://github.com/minio/minio/blob/master/docs/bigdata/images/image1.png?raw=true "cloud native architecture")

Kubernetes manages stateless Spark and Hive containers elastically on the compute nodes. Spark has native scheduler integration with Kubernetes. Hive, for legacy reasons, uses YARN scheduler on top of Kubernetes.

# MinIO FTP/SFTP Server

MinIO natively supports FTP/SFTP protocol, this allows any ftp/sftp client to upload and download files.

Currently supported `FTP/SFTP` operations are as follows:

| ftp-client commands | supported |
|:-------------------:|:----------|
| get                 | yes       |
| put                 | yes       |
| ls                  | yes       |
| mkdir               | yes       |
| rmdir               | yes       |

- Continue with the backup job creation.  On the Summary screen, check the Run the Job when I click Finish checkbox and click the Finish button. The backup job will start immediately.  This will create an Active Full backup of the VMs within the backup job.

- Since we selected Copy mode when creating the SOBR, the backup will be copied to the capacity tier as soon as it is created on the performance tier.

To replicate objects in a bucket to a destination bucket on a target site either in the same cluster or a different cluster, start by enabling [versioning](https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/administrati...

For hosts with firewall-cmd enabled (CentOS), you can use `firewall-cmd` command to allow traffic to specific ports. Use below commands to allow access to port 9000

```sh
firewall-cmd --get-active-zones
```

This command gets the active zone(s). Now, apply port rules to the relevant zones returned above. For example if the zone is `public`, use

```sh
firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=9000/tcp --permanent
```
