This document explains how to configure MinIO server with TLS certificates on Kubernetes.

## 1. Prerequisites

- Familiarity with [MinIO deployment process on Kubernetes](https://min.io/docs/minio/kubernetes/upstream/operations/installation.html).

- Kubernetes cluster with `kubectl` configured.

- Root credentials can now be changed easily. Before, a two-step process was required to
   change the cluster root credentials since they were used to en/decrypt the IAM data.
   So, both - the old and new credentials - had to be present at the same time during a rotation
   and the old credentials had to be removed once the rotation completed. This process is now gone.
