Object Storage

Configure S3-compatible storage for backups and replication.

since 0.1.0-beta

Object storage backs Cell backups, restore, and replica pull. Any S3-compatible service works (MinIO, AWS S3, R2, ...).

VariableDescription
COMBEE_S3_ENDPOINTEndpoint URL, e.g. http://minio:9000
COMBEE_S3_ACCESS_KEYAccess key
COMBEE_S3_SECRET_KEYSecret key
COMBEE_S3_BUCKETBucket name (default combee-backups)
COMBEE_S3_REGIONRegion (default us-east-1)

The bucket must exist before backups run; the Docker Compose setup creates it automatically (minio-init).

Without object storage there are no backups, no restore, no replication/failover — the replica pulls archives from it.
