Hi

Has anyone experience about on premise S3 storage for snapshots (backup) and searchable snapshots (frozen)?

We are looking at Ceph and MinIO and would like to hear from the community what you been struggling with.

Have someone set up a S3 cluster?  
Did you choose another brand?

So minio admin gui is out of the open source code. [MinIO is source-only now : r/minio](https://www.reddit.com/r/minio/comments/1oez7ui/minio_is_sourceonly_now/)

Have anyone experice of ceph open source with elastic frozen and snapshots?
