Minio now in maintenance mode

[jadudm]

I did some explorations in packaging Garage, and I suspect the need for object storage on Coudron with the fading of Minio is on the core team's radar:

• https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/6461/garage-an-open-source-distributed-storage-service-you-can-self-host-to-fullfill-many-needs/16
• https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/14689/garage-packaging-status-next-steps

Like timka said, I didn't poke RustFS for reliabiliy/newness reasons, and was reasonably pleased that Garage fit a similar niche/seems to fit the Cloudron model (self-hosting/limited-scale hosting).

Time to poke RustFS too. No fear.

RustFS is available as unstable now. Looks quite good as a MinIO replacement. But the app itself is in alpha

This is fascinating! https://github.com/orgs/rustfs/discussions/2213 I wonder if we could simply swap it out in the dockerfile?

@doodlemania2 pretty neat!

I've also posted elsewhere a minio fork that's a dropin replacement with more features to boot.

If I might throw my OSS software as single node Minio replacement in the ring: https://github.com/uroni/hs5

Should we patch the existing app with the minio fork and I could start maybe looking to package the Rust one?

RustFS has already been packaged by the Cloudron team. It's in the app store. But note that it's still in Alpha.

@jdaviescoates woah that's amazing! nice job yall. i was looking to sink my teeth back in and get back in the packaging world but since this one's already done, i'll keep my eyes posted.

@uroni Nicely done!
