Enterprise S3 Object Storage for Modern Datalake Solutions
MinIO offers a unified storage solution for modern datalakes/lakehouses that can run anywhere: private clouds, public clouds, co-location, bare-metal – even at the edge. It is fast, scalable, cloud-native and ready to go – all batteries included.
ELT or ETL – It Just Works
It is not just that MinIO works with every data streaming protocol and every data pipeline, it is that every data streaming protocol and every data pipeline works with MinIO. Every vendor tests extensively and frequently such that data pipelines are resilient and performant.
Open Table Format Ready
The modern datalake is multi-engine and those engines (Spark, Flink, Trino, Arrow, Dask etc) all need to be in some way tied into a cohesive architecture. The modern datalake has to deliver central table storage, portable commute, access control and persistent structure.
That is where formats like Iceberg, Hudi and Delta Lake come into play. They are designed for the modern datalake and they are each supported in MinIO.

Performant
MinIO has proven in multiple benchmarks that it is materially faster than Hadoop and the migration path is clearly documented. This means better performance for your query engines (Spark, Presto, Trino, Snowflake, Microsoft SQL Server, Teradata and more).
This also includes your AI/ML platforms – from MLflow to Kubeflow.
.
Secure by design
MinIO supports multiple, sophisticated server-side encryption schemes to protect data — wherever it may be — in flight or at rest. MinIO’s approach assures confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity with negligible performance overhead. Server side and client side encryption are supported using AES-256-GCM, ChaCha20-Poly1305, and AES-CBC, ensuring application compatibility.
Furthermore, MinIO supports industry-leading key management systems (KMS).
Hadoop HDFS Replacement
The future is disaggregated, S3-Compatible and Kubernetes-Native – in other words, something other than Hadoop HDFS.
MinIO is the only object storage platform that has the performance and scale to step in and replace legacy, but mission critical Hadoop HDFS deployments.
MinIO was born in the cloud and is designed for containers and orchestration via Kubernetes, making it the ideal technology to transition to when retiring legacy HDFS instances.
Integrations with MinIO
MinIO integrated with various data platforms, identity platforms, analytics platforms, content management platforms, AI/ML tools and backup solutions to provide seamless orchestration and management of modern datalake platform.
Our team has also developed Alfresco ECM Connector for MinIO S3 Object Storage to facilitate ECM integration with modern object storage and protect critical business documents using WORM object lock feature offered by MinIO.
