S3 Storage Alternatives

AWS S3 is the defacto standard for object storage. Therefore there are many alternatives that implement the same API, but based on disk or other storages.

MinIO is just publicly archived

Since MinIO is no longer open-source. See Public Archived, here’s some great alternatives. Initially, someone created a fork for the UI at OpenMaxIO, but latest fork and continuation of MinIO lives at Silo, check more below.

• Garage: An open-source distributed object storage service tailored for self-hosting
• Ceph.io: Ceph is an open-source, distributed storage system.
• Zenko Zenko is the open source multi-cloud data controller: own and keep control of your data on any cloud.
• SeaweedFS: is a fast distributed storage system for blobs, objects, files, and data lake, for billions of files! Blob store has O(1) disk seek, cloud tiering. Filer supports Cloud Drive, cross-DC active-active replication, Kubernetes, POSIX FUSE mount, S3 API, S3 Gateway, Hadoop, WebDAV, encryption, Erasure Coding. Seems to be liked a lot on HackerNews.
• Silo, started as pgsty/minio community, now renamed to Silo with first release Release under the name. It’s a fork of minio (Object Storage Service) and they brought back Admin console, docs and other things, continue what MinIO was before going close-source.
