MinIO Multi-Tenant Deployment Guide Slack Go Report Card Docker Pulls codecov

This topic provides commands to set up different configurations of hosts, nodes, and drives. The examples provided here can be used as a starting point for other configurations.

  1. Standalone Deployment
  2. Distributed Deployment
  3. Cloud Scale Deployment

1. Standalone Deployment

To host multiple tenants on a single machine, run one MinIO Server per tenant with a dedicated HTTPS port, configuration, and data directory.

1.1 Host Multiple Tenants on a Single Drive

Use the following commands to host 3 tenants on a single drive:

minio server --address :9001 /data/tenant1
minio server --address :9002 /data/tenant2
minio server --address :9003 /data/tenant3

Example-1

1.2 Host Multiple Tenants on Multiple Drives (Erasure Code)

Use the following commands to host 3 tenants on multiple drives:

minio server --address :9001 /disk1/data/tenant1 /disk2/data/tenant1 /disk3/data/tenant1 /disk4/data/tenant1
minio server --address :9002 /disk1/data/tenant2 /disk2/data/tenant2 /disk3/data/tenant2 /disk4/data/tenant2
minio server --address :9003 /disk1/data/tenant3 /disk2/data/tenant3 /disk3/data/tenant3 /disk4/data/tenant3

Example-2

2. Distributed Deployment

To host multiple tenants in a distributed environment, run several distributed MinIO Server instances concurrently.

2.1 Host Multiple Tenants on Multiple Drives (Erasure Code)

Use the following commands to host 3 tenants on a 4-node distributed configuration:

export MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=<TENANT1_ACCESS_KEY>
export MINIO_SECRET_KEY=<TENANT1_SECRET_KEY>
minio server --address :9001 http://192.168.10.11/data/tenant1 http://192.168.10.12/data/tenant1 http://192.168.10.13/data/tenant1 http://192.168.10.14/data/tenant1

export MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=<TENANT2_ACCESS_KEY>
export MINIO_SECRET_KEY=<TENANT2_SECRET_KEY>
minio server --address :9002 http://192.168.10.11/data/tenant2 http://192.168.10.12/data/tenant2 http://192.168.10.13/data/tenant2 http://192.168.10.14/data/tenant2

export MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=<TENANT3_ACCESS_KEY>
export MINIO_SECRET_KEY=<TENANT3_SECRET_KEY>
minio server --address :9003 http://192.168.10.11/data/tenant3 http://192.168.10.12/data/tenant3 http://192.168.10.13/data/tenant3 http://192.168.10.14/data/tenant3

Note: Execute the commands on all 4 nodes.

Example-3

Note: On distributed systems, credentials must be defined and exported using the MINIO_ACCESS_KEY and MINIO_SECRET_KEY environment variables. If a domain is required, it must be specified by defining and exporting the MINIO_DOMAIN environment variable.

Cloud Scale Deployment

A container orchestration platform (e.g. Kubernetes, DC/OS, or Docker Swarm) is recommended for large-scale, multi-tenant MinIO deployments. See the MinIO Deployment Quickstart Guide to get started with MinIO on orchestration platforms.
