How do I install MinIO?
Pick one of your servers, choose MinIO from the one-click catalog and give it a domain. Nuvlo starts the containers with generated passwords, points the domain and issues the certificate.
What size server does MinIO need?
Light. Runs comfortably next to other sites on the smallest server.
What happens after install?
The S3 API answers on your domain. The console runs on an internal port, shown on the app’s page, and is reached over SSH port forwarding.
Is MinIO backed up?
Yes. Apps are sites like any other, so they use the same backup schedules and your own storage bucket.
Who updates MinIO?
You do. MinIO keeps the version it was installed with; to move to a newer release, pull the new image on the server over SSH. The dashboard has no update button for apps.
Does Nuvlo charge per app?
No. You pay your Nuvlo plan and your cloud provider for the server, and MinIO itself is free to self-host.
