<hr width="100%" size="2" noshade="noshade" align="left" ><br> <br> <br> Hi all,<br> <br> <br> <br> We have over a longer period used the S3 API within spectrum Scale.. And that has shown that it does not support very many applications because of limitations of the API..<br> <br> <br> <br> Has anyone got any experience with any other product we can deploy on-top of Spectrum Scale that will give us a true S3 API with full functionalities and able to answer on port 443? As of now we use HAProxy to forware ssl request back and forth from Scale S3 API.<br> <br> <br> <br> We have looked at MinIO which seems to be fairly simple and maybe might solve a lot of incompatibilities with clients software. But the product seems to be very badly documented at least for me.<br> <br> The idea is basically that a client uses their backup application(rubrik, veeam etc.) to connect to a domain(for example backup.mycompany.com) with their access and secret key and have access to their bucket only. and it must be over https/ssl.<br> <br> <br> <br> If someone has any knowledge to minio or any other product that might solve our problem I will be glad to hear from you! 😊<br> <br> Thank you in advance!<br> <tt><font size="3" face="" >_______________________________________________<br> gpfsug-discuss mailing list<br> gpfsug-discuss at spectrumscale.org</font></tt><br> <tt><u><font size="3" face="" color="#0000FF" ><a href="http://gpfsug.org/mailman/listinfo/gpfsug-discuss" target="_blank">http://gpfsug.org/mailman/listinfo/gpfsug-discuss</a></font></u></tt><tt><font size="3" face="" > </font></tt><br> <br> <br> <br> _______________________________________________<br> gpfsug-discuss mailing list<br> gpfsug-discuss at spectrumscale.org<br> <u><font color="#0000FF" ><a href="http://gpfsug.org/mailman/listinfo/gpfsug-discuss" target="_blank">http://gpfsug.org/mailman/listinfo/gpfsug-discuss</a></font></u>
