Install and use Minio on DC/OS

Minio is an object storage server released under Apache License v2.0. It is compatible with Amazon S3 cloud storage service. It is best suited for storing unstructured data such as photos, videos, log files, backups and container / VM images. Size of an object can range from a few KBs to a maximum of 5TB.

Minio server is light enough to be bundled with the application stack, similar to NodeJS, Redis and MySQL.

This installation uses the single node version of Minio (Minio FS), checkout the Minio docs for more details.

The instructions below use a pinned hostname constraint to ensure the application is always restarted on the same host by Marathon. This allows it to get back to its data but means that you could lose data if that agent goes down.

  • Estimated time for completion: less than 5 minutes.
  • Target audience:
    • Operators

Install Minio Client

Minio Client (mc) provides a modern alternative to UNIX commands like ls, cat, cp, mirror, diff etc. It supports filesystems and Amazon S3 compatible cloud storage service (AWS Signature v2 and v4).

Click here for instructions on installing mc.

Configure Minio Client

  • There are different ways to configure Minio Client for different S3 cloud storage providers.
  • Refer to Guide for further configuration.

Example - Minio Cloud Storage

mc config host add <ALIAS> <YOUR-MINIO-BROWSER-ADDRESS> <YOUR-ACCESS-KEY> <YOUR-SECRET-KEY> <API-SIGNATURE>(optional)

Example: Create a new bucket named "mybucket" on http://54.255.206.228

mc config host add minio-dcos http://54.255.206.228 ELVUN4CWOAIRWOT2AO9D 4e6CIFtWW1/YI91Pd6FONRJgssKiFO2Ea1d5fDwp S3v4
mc mb minio-dcos/mybucket
Bucket created successfully ‘minio-dcos/mybucket’.

Now switch to Minio Browser, you can see mybacket in left-side panel where all the backets are listed.

Last but not least I want you to see what Minio’s resource footprint looks like:
