Minio died, what about S3 in OpenVidu?

Minio’s repo turned to archive and won’t be maintained, rebranded as AIStor closed-source product.

Given that, what’s the future of S3 storage in OpenVidu?

We are currently studying the best available alternatives. We’ll address this in the near future.

For release 3.6.0, we are continuing to use the latest official MinIO release.

Looking ahead to 3.7.0, we plan to build a custom image based on the Bitnami container scripts and this Chainguard fork: GitHub - chainguard-forks/minio: MinIO is a high-performance, S3 compatible object store, open sourced under GNU AGPLv3 license. · GitHub

We believe this is the least disruptive path forward. Migrating to a different service would require manual migration of data from previous to new versions and MinIO is battle-tested. Chainguard appears committed to maintaining it. Since they don’t publish an official Docker image, we’ll build one ourselves. We’ll be creating a dedicated repository to host all Dockerfiles for third-party images we provide, this repo isn’t live yet, but will be ready for the 3.7.0 release.
