For our needs at work (~100TB), buying Pure Storage flash arrays (hardware, software, onsite support) worked out cheaper than MinIO licensing alone.

It is an interesting time we're in right now where buying physical hardware and support is cheaper than a license.

Same goes for AWS markup on rented hardware. ;)

Man I sometimes miss having physical servers.

Pure isn’t exactly an entry level market player either. MinIO’s pricing is on another planet.
