Bucket Notifications

minio

Table of Contents

MinIO bucket notifications allow administrators to send notifications to supported external services on certain object or bucket events. MinIO supports bucket and object-level S3 events similar to the Amazon S3 Event Notifications <NotificationHowTo.html>.

Supported Notification Targets

MinIO supports publishing event notifications to the following targets:

Target	Description
AMQP (RabbitMQ)	Publish notifications to an AMQP service such as RabbitMQ. See minio-bucket-notifications-publish-amqp for a tutorial.
MQTT	Publish notifications to an MQTT service. See minio-bucket-notifications-publish-mqtt for a tutorial.
NATS	Publish notifications to a NATS service. See minio-bucket-notifications-publish-nats for a tutorial.
NSQ	Publish notifications to a NSQ service. See minio-bucket-notifications-publish-nsq for a tutorial
Elasticsearch	Publish notifications to a Elasticsearch service. See minio-bucket-notifications-publish-elasticsearch for a tutorial.
Kafka	Publish notifications to a Kafka service. See minio-bucket-notifications-publish-kafka for a tutorial.
MySQL	Publish notifications to a MySQL service. See minio-bucket-notifications-publish-mysql for a tutorial.
PostgreSQL	Publish notifications to a PostgreSQL service. See minio-bucket-notifications-publish-postgresql for a tutorial.
Redis	Publish notifications to a Redis service. See minio-bucket-notifications-publish-redis for a tutorial.
webhook	Publish notifications to a Webhook service. See minio-bucket-notifications-publish-webhook for a tutorial.

Asynchronous vs Synchronous Bucket Notifications

RELEASE.2023-06-23T20-26-00Z

MinIO supports either asynchronous (default) or synchronous bucket notifications for all remote targets.

With asynchronous delivery, MinIO fires the event at the configured remote and does not wait for a response before continuing to the next event. Asynchronous bucket notification prioritizes sending events with the risk of some events being lost if the remote target has a transient issue during transit or processing.

With synchronous delivery, MinIO fires the event at the configured remote and then waits for the remote to confirm a successful receipt before continuing to the next event. Synchronous bucket notification prioritizes delivery of events with the risk of a slower event-send rate and queue fill.

To enable synchronous bucket notifications for all configured remote targets, use either of the following settings:

• Set the MINIO_API_SYNC_EVENTS environment variable to on and restart the MinIO deployment.
• Set the api.sync_events configuration setting to on and restart the MinIO deployment.

Note

For synchronous and asynchronous events, MinIO maintains a per-remote queue where it stores unsent and pending events. The queue limit defaults to 100000.

MinIO discards new events when the queue is full.

You can increase the queue size as necessary to better accommodate the rate of event send and processing of the MinIO deployment and remote target. Use the QUEUE_LIMIT environment variable or configuration setting for your notification method to modify this limit.

For asynchronous events, MinIO allows a maximum of 50000 concurrent send calls.
