Minio object storage

Hello everyone. First of all please, excuse me for asking this question as I did not worked with any object storage before. I have been suggested to use Minio from my friend. I have one question.

  • Can I use Minio to store my images and files and only me who can post images using REST API by only me? so means no other person can access my storage. Like I have an API key. that’s it. Thank you

Hi there,

Yes, this should be the case. You will have a username and a password that you can use to securely authenticate with your MinIO instance.

Here is also a tutorial on how to set that all up:

An alternative option would be to use the DigitalOcean Spaces:

Hope that this helps!

Best,

Bobby
