Discover an opensource Object Storage as alternative to AWS S3, Linode Storage, Google Storage, Azure Storage, but for free. You can handle your own servers and be in charge with all your storage. Don’t worry is very simple to start the server with Docker, follow my example.
What is min.io
MinIO offers high-performance, S3 compatible object storage. Native to Kubernetes, MinIO is the only object storage suite available on every public cloud, every Kubernetes distribution, the private cloud and the edge. MinIO is software-defined and is 100% open source under GNU AGPL v3.

And let’s use the Object Storage server by URL: http://127.0.0.1:9000.
Configure Nginx with Minio
