# How to monitor MinIO server with Grafana [![Slack](https://slack.min.io/slack?type=svg)](https://slack.min.io)

[Grafana](https://grafana.com/) allows you to query, visualize, alert on and understand your metrics no matter where they are stored. Create, explore, and share dashboards with your team and foster a data driven culture.

## Prerequisites

The result will be discarded.

### Typed handlers

Typed handlers are handlers that have a specific type for the request and response payloads.
These must provide `msgp` serialization and deserialization.

In the examples we use a `MSS` type, which is a `map[string]string` that is `msgp` serializable.

```go

### 2. Configure authentication type for Prometheus metrics

MinIO supports two authentication modes for Prometheus either `jwt` or `public`, by default MinIO runs in `jwt` mode. To allow public access without authentication for prometheus metrics set environment as follows.

```
export MINIO_PROMETHEUS_AUTH_TYPE="public"
minio server ~/test
```

### 3. Configuring Prometheus

Deploying a Gateway to be used as an [Egress Gateway](https://istio.io/latest/docs/tasks/traffic-management/egress/egress-gateway/):

```yaml
service:
  # Egress gateways do not need an external LoadBalancer IP
  type: ClusterIP
```

#### Multi-network/VM Gateway

Deploying a Gateway to be used as a [Multi-network Gateway](https://istio.io/latest/docs/setup/install/multicluster/) for network `network-1`:

```yaml

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

MinIO uses a key-management-system (KMS) to support SSE-S3. If a client requests SSE-S3, or auto-encryption is enabled, the MinIO server encrypts each object with an unique object key which is protected by a master key managed by the KMS.

## Quick Start

all CRDs to be present. On each upgrade it is recommended to reapply the file, to make sure
you get all CRDs.  CRDs are separated by release and by component type in the CRD directory.

Istio has strong integration with certmanager.  Some operators may want to keep their current certmanager

You can set a custom body with a string, input stream or byte array. Also
add headers with a fluent builder API.

```java
MockResponse response = new MockResponse()
    .addHeader("Content-Type", "application/json; charset=utf-8")
    .addHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache")
    .setBody("{}");
```

MockResponse can be used to simulate a slow network. This is useful for
testing timeouts and interactive testing.

#### Calico

For Calico, you must also modify the settings to allow source spoofing:

- if deployed by operator,  `kubectl patch felixconfigurations default --type='json' -p='[{"op": "add", "path": "/spec/workloadSourceSpoofing", "value": "Any"}]'`

- A maximum of 100M inside a single zip is allowed. However, a reasonable limit of 100,000 files inside a single ZIP archive is recommended for best performance and memory usage trade-off.
