Fully Managed MinIO
as a Service
Deploy MinIO as a fully managed service starting at €9/mo. Get automated backups, SSL, updates, support and monitoring included.
MinIO is an open-source, S3-compatible object storage server — buckets, objects, and the S3 API that most cloud-storage tools already speak. It gives you a private storage endpoint with the convenience of a managed service, without the per-gigabyte transfer bill of a public cloud store. One caveat worth knowing up front: the open-source edition is no longer updated upstream, which shapes how we run it.
What to know first
MinIO's open-source edition changed in 2025
The web admin console was reduced to a basic object browser, and full bucket, user, and policy management moved to the vendor's paid edition. In February 2026 the upstream project was marked no longer maintained. We run a pinned, known-good release so its behaviour stays stable, and you manage it through the S3 API, the mc command-line client, and a terminal in your dashboard. If you need ongoing upstream security patches or the full web console, a maintained S3-compatible project will fit you better — and we will say so before you start a trial.

ABOUT THE SOFTWARE
What is MinIO
FEATURES
What MinIO does
WHAT'S ALWAYS INCLUDED
Every app. Fully managed.
Nothing extra to pay for.
Every app you deploy includes the full managed service — security, backups, updates, and support from day one.
WHY MANAGED
Why teams pick managed MinIO
- A pinned, known-good release, kept stable rather than moved under you.
- A TLS endpoint and network firewall, set up for you.
- An encrypted off-site backup every day, in a separate datacenter — so your object data is copied off the machine it runs on.
- A terminal in the dashboard for the mc client, plus 24/7 human help when a change needs a person.

No more maintenance headaches!
Finaly, I can relax and not bother with maintenance. Each of the softwares that we run on DANIAN is automated and running stable for couple months already. They even assist us with modifying the DNS records. Once we needed to modify the config of Nextcloud so that we are able to upload higher than 5GB files and they assisted us fast. I also love their documentation!

Kevin Blackwell

Best managed service
I previously ran Peertube, Mastodon, Mattermost and Mirotalk on other providers before switching to DANIAN. I was tired of handling the updates and backups myself. Not only that the performance is "out of this world" fast, but their tech support is amazing. Since then I added 5-10 more Apps on my account. I also love how they add more softwares on their list constantly!

Love the personalized service!

n8n runs excellent

David Hartmann

Smooth experience
I needed a way to manage the projects and files for my company. This was the first time I learn about opensource. I asked their support and livechat and they assisted me immediately. I started with Openproject. Later I added Nextcloud. My team were able to get used to the apps fast.

Love the freedom
I wanted to use a crm for my startup. I signed up for the free trial. Tried out espocrm and dolibar and picked one. Their dashboard is very easy for a beginner. I recommend them and feel confident in choosing them.

Wow just wow
After discovering DANIAN, I wished I'd found them sooner — their solution is excellent and deserves wider recognition. Very good solution!

Tyler Hollander

Professional tech support!

Bastian Engel

Their support team is the best!
I had a problem with my card and the subscription could not be renewed in time. I notified their support and surprisingly, they showed much understanding. They basically left my apps run until I solved the card issue. Other providers would have deleted my data in a heartbeat. This is the way to build client-vendor trust!

George Adams

Fair price and fast
4 months ago I activated n8n, Uptime kuma, Vaultwarden and Paperlessngx. So far everything is perfect. The performance of all apps is excellent. I contacted their support team couple times for using custom subdomains for the apps and they were fast and kind. I'm constantly recommending them to my network!

Atanas

Vaultwarden 10/10
I wanted to selfhost a passwords manager for my company but I didn't trust the mainstream providers. I tried out Vaultwarden for the free trial. I loved how their support team communicated with me professionally but still kind. I know that I can contact them whenever with whatever question I have. Recommended!

Everything just works!
My focus is on my business, not running servers. I love that I can lauch any app without having to think about the tech behind it. Everything just works!
Tony Roy

Awesome support team!

Filip

Very proactive!
Today couple of the videos on my Peertube got viral. Before I even noticed, their support have notified me via email that they proactively upgraded my app with more cpu & ram so that it continues to work without any downtime. They left the upgraded app with the added resources for couple days until the traffic stabilizes. After that I had the possiblity to stay on the same plan or keep the upgraded plan. Out of gratitude I stayed on the upgraded one.

Luke Hall

Win-win!
I run a web design biz. After I perform the work for my clients, they constantly ask me for more software solutions. So I partnered with DANIAN. Not only I provide the requested softwares for my clients and get the increased revenue boost by delegating all to DANIAN, but also for those clients that wish to order directly from DANIAN, I send them an affiliate link. Win-win on all sides!

Awesome customer service
I needed to add analytics on my website but I didn't know anything about DNS. Their team guided me at all phases and they performed the changes for me. Additionally they were transparent and notified me of every change applied and steps performed.

Gabriele Marino

Good admin dashboard
Not only that I got Chatwoot, I also have access to the management dashboard. I love that I can view my hourly/daily usage and perform manual backups and restorations if needed. I don't need the level of control but it feels good to know that I have it if I need it.

Great service!
I configure custom Matomo tracking for my clients as a monthly service. Many of my clients were asking if they can selfhost Matomo instead of using the Cloud service. My employee recommended DANIAN. Basically, I can activate as much Matomo's in any of 20+ countries the same day. Additionally the affiliate revenue is a nice bonus.

Jacob Turner

Smooth experience
I was listing through youtube tuts on how to install Bookstack myself. Then randomly, I found their video playlist exactly for Bookstack. Got curious and went at their website. For the same price (or higher) that I would pay for just the VPS, with them I'm getting a fully managed Bookstack. It's a no-brainer decision!

Mason Hayes

Its a great service
Its a great service. I love the performance of my Mastodon community. It keeps on growing and I don't have any worries about backups, secuirity, updates, etc.

Vinícius Rocha

Very intuitive solution!
I wanted to use a nocode software for my company. A friend recommended them so I tried both Baserow and NocoDB, couple days later picked one.

USE CASES
Three teams who run MinIO on DANIAN
These are representative team types we set up most often. Each starts with the same flat €9 plan.
12-PERSON SAAS STARTUP
Moving user uploads off a transfer-metered cloud bill
Stores around 25 GB of customer file uploads and serves close to 1 TB a month from the app. Runs in a region next to their application servers, behind TLS, with versioning on so an overwritten file can be recovered. The flat €9 replaced a transfer bill that climbed every month.
BACKUP TARGET FOR AN IT TEAM
An S3 target that is itself backed up
Points restic and Velero at MinIO for nightly snapshots, with object locking set so a backup cannot be altered inside its retention window. Picked a region away from their primary site. Our encrypted off-site copy means the backup target is not a single point of failure.
AGENCY HOSTING A CLIENT STACK
Object storage under a self-hosted app, without becoming a host
Runs MinIO as the S3 backend for a client's self-hosted tools, on a custom domain, in a region near the client's users. Manages keys from the dashboard terminal and leaves patching, TLS, and backups to us — one flat line on the client invoice.
COMPARISON
Four ways to run MinIO
Object storage can be rented by the gigabyte, self-hosted on a server, run at home, or managed for a flat fee. The honest cost of each depends less on storage than on data transfer and the hours you spend operating it. Here is a representative workload: about 30 GB stored and 1 TB served per month.
| PATH | MONTHLY COST | YOUR OPS TIME | WHO PATCHES IT | CONSOLE & STORAGE |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Proprietary cloud (Amazon S3) | ≈ $85* | ~0 hrs | Vendor | No console to run; about 98% of this profile is data-transfer-out |
| Self-host on a $24/mo production-class VPS | ≈ €100–280 effective | 1–2 hrs/mo | You — upstream no longer ships fixes | Console reduced to object browser; CLI management |
| Home server (e.g. Synology DS923+) | ≈ €210–667 effective | 2–4 hrs/mo | You | Home upload bandwidth caps how fast you can serve objects |
| DANIAN Managed MinIO | €9 flat | 0 hrs | We pin a known-good release | 30 GB + 1 TB transfer included, up to 16 TB storage; terminal + object browser |
*Amazon S3 Standard at $0.023/GB stored plus $0.09/GB data-transfer-out after the first 100 GB free; about 30 GB stored and 1 TB out works out near $85/month, almost all of it transfer.
For very large archives you rarely read, S3's cold-storage tiers cost less per gigabyte at rest. A flat plan wins when you serve data regularly and want a bill that does not move.
BY INDUSTRY
MinIO for specific industries
Object storage puts different demands on different teams. A studio cares about large-file transfers; a backup admin cares about objects that cannot be altered; an ML team cares about the S3 SDK its tools already use. These five sections cover where managed MinIO fits — and where it does not.
