When you DELETE an object, all versions remain in the bucket and MinIO adds a delete marker, as shown below:

![delete](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/minio/minio/master/docs/bucket/versioning/versioning_DELETE_versionEnabled.png)

MinIO's Object Lambda, enables application developers to process data retrieved from MinIO before returning it to an application. You can register a Lambda Function target on MinIO, once successfully registered it can be used to transform the data for application GET requests on demand.

  - LDAP/AD users and their respective service accounts
  - OpenID/OIDC service accounts

- On versioned buckets, FTP/SFTP only operates on latest objects, if you need to retrieve
  an older version you must use an `S3 API client` such as [`mc`](https://github.com/minio/mc).

- All features currently used by your buckets will work as is without any changes
  - SSE (Server Side Encryption)

# Select API Quickstart Guide [![Slack](https://slack.min.io/slack?type=svg)](https://slack.min.io)

Traditional retrieval of objects is always as whole entities, i.e GetObject for a 5 GiB object, will always return 5 GiB of data. S3 Select API allows us to retrieve a subset of data by using simple SQL expressions. By using Select API to retrieve only the data needed by the application, drastic performance improvements can be achieved.

To collect `xl.meta` from a specific object, for example placed at `ALIAS/bucket/path/to/file.txt` append `/xl.meta`, for instance `mc support inspect ALIAS/bucket/path/to/file.txt/xl.meta`. All files can be collected, so this can also be used to retrieve `part.*` files, etc.

Wildcards can be used, for example `mc support inspect ALIAS/bucket/path/**/xl.meta` will collect all `xl.meta` recursively. `mc support inspect ALIAS/bucket/path/to/file.txt/*/part.*` will collect parts for all versions...
