Erasure Code Stripe Size (K+M)
MinIO splits each object into data and parity blocks. Stripe size (S) is the total number of data blocks (K) and parity blocks (M), i.e, S=K+M.
Thank you! Your submission has been received!
Oops! Something went wrong while submitting the form.
Erasure Code Parity (M)
Higher parity (M) trades increased availability and data resiliency in the event of drive or server failure for reduced storage efficiency. Lower parity (M) trades increased storage efficiency for decreased availability/resiliency.

Server Failure(s) Tolerance
The number of servers the MinIO deployment can lose while still performing read + write operations (read + write quorum). Quorum is per-stripe, where each drive on the server supports one of the Erasure Code stripes. Based on the parity setting M=3, the loss of more than 3 server(s) would exceed the read+write quorum of 3 drive(s) offline.
3 server failures in total
(3 server failures per stripe)
Drive Failure(s) Tolerance
The number of drives the MinIO deployment can lose while still performing read + write operations (read + write quorum). Quorum is per-stripe, where the aggregated total assumes no more than 3 failed drive(s) per stripe.

If the Erasure Code Parity (M) is 1/2 the Stripe Size, read + write quorum is (Stripe Size - (M + 1)) drives.
24 drive failures in total
(3 drive failures per stripe)

What Our
Customers
Are Saying

MinIO Is The Most Reliable Object Storage Solution For On-Premise Deployments. We use it as a high-performance object storage solution for several analytics use cases. Switching over to MinIO from HDFS has improved the performance of analytics workloads significantly.
— Banking, IT.
Firm Size: 30B + USD
MinIO - A Must Have For Hyper-Scale Storage. Our group’s goal to optimize performance and reduce costs were met and exceeded by MinIO. The object storage server MinIO provides was compatible with our existing systems which was a huge bonus for us. They also helped us to reduce our overall storage footprint which also helped us reduce costs.
— Healthcare and Biotech, Engineering - Other.
Firm Size: 10B - 30B USD
When it comes to data storage, there are a lot of different options to choose from. But for our most recent project, our customer required that all systems and services be hosted on-premise for data security reasons. So we needed to find a reliable multi-cloud storage solution that would work well in a K8S cluster environment.
— Banking, Software Development.
Firm Size: 3B - 10B USD
MinIO is the de facto standard in object storage. It's very simple to use. The CLI version for MinIO is also simple and can be used with any AWS S3 compatible object storage product.
— Travel and Hospitality, IT.
Firm Size: 250M - 500M USD
MinIO delivers unparalleled performance at lower TCO. Simple way to store with no hidden cost like egress rates.
— Software. Software Development.
Firm Size: 50 - 250 M USD
