MinIO Backup Storage

S3-compatible backup storage from on-premises to cloud

MinIO provides S3-compatible object storage that can make on-premises and hybrid infrastructure look like Amazon S3 to backup workflows. DPX can use MinIO as a scalable target for archive and NDMP data while keeping storage placement flexible.

  • Use MinIO Hybrid Cloud Object Storage with DPX backup workflows
  • Archive block-level and VMware agentless backups from DPX vStor
  • Protect NDMP data with S3-compatible object storage
  • Use MinIO as a remote target for disaster recovery copies
  • Keep data under your control for compliance and governance needs

MinIO backup storage benefits

DPX and MinIO give teams a flexible object storage pattern for backup archive and retention.

S3 API compatibility

Integrate object storage through S3-compatible workflows that fit cloud and private infrastructure.

Hybrid placement

Use object storage across on-premises, private cloud, and public cloud-adjacent designs.

Archive target

Move retained backup copies from DPX vStor to MinIO for longer-term storage.

NDMP retention

Store large NAS and NDMP data sets on cost-effective object storage.

Remote DR target

Use MinIO as a remotely located target when recovery copies must live outside the primary site.

Governance control

Keep backup data on storage that aligns with internal data placement and compliance policies.

How DPX uses MinIO

DPX can archive to MinIO without requiring a custom storage workflow. Backup teams can keep operational backups local and retain selected backup data on MinIO for scale, offsite recovery, and governance.

  • Configure MinIO as S3-compatible object storage
  • Archive selected DPX backups from vStor
  • Store NDMP backup data on object storage
  • Use remote MinIO capacity for DR-oriented retention
  • Recover from retained backup data when local copies are unavailable
