MinIO server allows WORM for specific objects or by configuring a bucket with default object lock configuration that applies default retention mode and retention duration to all objects. This makes objects in the bucket immutable i.e. delete of the version are not allowed until an expiry specified in the bucket's object lock configuration or object retention.

It uses a single two-way connection to send and receive messages between servers.

It includes built in muxing of concurrent requests as well as congestion handling for streams.

Requests can be "Single Payload" or "Streamed".

Use the MinIO Grid for:

* Small, frequent requests with low latency requirements.
* Long-running requests with small/medium payloads.

Do *not* use the MinIO Grid for:

* Large payloads.

`MINIO_ROOT_USER_FILE` and `MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD_FILE` also support custom absolute paths, in case Docker secrets are mounted to custom locations or other tools are used to mount secrets into the container. For example, HashiCorp Vault injects secrets to `/vault/secrets`. With the custom names above, set the environment variables to

# Automatic Site Replication

This feature allows multiple independent MinIO sites (or clusters) that are using the same external IDentity Provider (IDP) to be configured as replicas. In this situation the set of replica sites are referred to as peer sites or just sites. When site-replication is enabled on a set of sites, the following changes are replicated to all other sites:

- Creation and deletion of buckets and objects

| Erasure Set Size | Default Parity (EC:N) |
|------------------|-----------------------|
| 5 or fewer       |                 EC:2  |
| 6-7              |                 EC:3  |
| 8 or more        |                 EC:4  |

## What is Bit Rot protection?

MinIO supports any MQTT server that supports MQTT 3.1 or 3.1.1 and can connect to them over TCP, TLS, or a Websocket connection using `tcp://`, `tls://`, or `ws://` respectively as the scheme for the broker url. See the [Go Client](http://www.eclipse.org/paho/clients/golang/) documentation for more information.

- Versioning state applies to all of the objects in the versioning enabled bucket. The first time you enable a bucket for versioning, objects in the bucket are thereafter always versioned and given a unique version ID.

NOTE: `mybucket` only exists on one cluster either `cluster1` or `cluster2` this is random and
is decided by how `domain.com` gets resolved, if there is a round-robin DNS on `domain.com` then
it is randomized which cluster might provision the bucket.

### 3. Test your setup

## Prerequisites

- One or both of Veeam Backup and Replication with support for S3 compatible object store (e.g. 9.5.4) and Veeam Backup for Office365 (VBO)
- MinIO object storage set up per <https://min.io/docs/minio/linux/index.html>
