Benchmarking and migrating from #Minio [1] to #Garage [2] #S3 storage. Impressive!

Mathias Hasselmann@jwildeboer I like the claim āAn S3 object store so reliable you can run it outside datacentersā. š
Thoralf Will@jwildeboer @homelab So, does that mean it could make sense to try this on my homelab with only 1Gbit connection between the nodes?
Ceph did not fly (to be expected). But those numbers almost make me believe that Garage could be light weight enough for this to work ā¦

@thoralf It's running perfectly fine in my homelab with 3 Lenovo tiny PCs with 1 Gbit network. In part 3 of my short series on using Garage in my homelab I do some benchmarks too: https://jan.wildeboer.net/2026/01/3-Using-Garage-S3/ @homelab
Sebastian Lohmann@thoralf @jwildeboer @homelab Iām running a two node cluster: a local node is running on my home server and the second one is just a spare Raspberry Pi 4 with a 5 TB HDD which I placed at my brotherās home. Iām using the āclusterā as a backup target for Kopia, which works pretty fine, although thereās just a 15 MBit connection between the nodes. Iām thinking about a third node to increase redundancy. One catch: backups are slower than usually, but as they are incremental itās ok. #Kopia #Garage
Adam Havelka@jwildeboer @homelab garage is cool and stuff, but after todays playing with it , figured out that does not support anonymous access to data :( so cant be used as storage for web projects

Ooh, this might be a good alternative to our current rsync / syncthing arrangements (over tinc) @Slash909uk ?

Slash909uk@phlash @jwildeboer @homelab min network speeds of 50Mbps could be a problem? This is why we rejected all storage cluster software so far... none of them cope with ADSL speed networks and downtime. Except Syncthing.
Interesting option to try, however š
