Anyone have the same concern with me? will RustFS close source again in a few year like MinIO. then we need to find another alternative.

Curious how RustFS handles MinIO’s quorum and locking logic after replacement. What’s the performance overhead like?

What we've achieved: By replacing the MinIO binary with RustFs, we achieved full compatibility.

What’s the rollback path if we want to switch back to MinIO after migration?

I'm already using RustFS in my project, which rewrites Kubernetes in Rust: https://github.com/rk8s-dev/rk8s. We are working on a distributed filesystem on the RustFS.

Oh it's secure now? Their agent doesn't leave keys in the code anymore?
