Dear all
The ODK central uses either Postgres DB based storage or pushes attachments to S3. Now simplest is to have a S3 cloud provider but what if you need to keep S3 locally on your own server?
After some brainstorming and searching, I feel Garage S3 server is a good fit. Its on a VM on a centralised storage in my case so I don’t really care about multi node setup for now.
I have developed a docker container for it running Openresty which is a nginx fork.
Still testing it out. Will share results soon.
Thanks
Vivek

Internally we use minio for testing purposes to store files locally with S3 protocols.
It's worth noting that minio is in a strange place right now:
This project is currently under maintenance and is not accepting new changes.
This project is a source only distribution now, if you want to build containers you need to build them yourselves
@Dr_Vivek_Gupta it will be interesting to learn from your results - thanks!

Thanks.. these changes in MINIO governance model were a primary driver for looking at alternatives and that’s where Garage that is grant funded came under consideration.
