Ravind Kumar 571f188a4e Attempting to reduce docs to single platform (#1258)
##

We are going to make the following changes to the Object Store docs as
part of a larger QC/Content pass:

### Left Navigation

We want to modify the left navigation flow to be a natural progression
from a basic setup to more advanced.

For example:

- Core Concepts
  - Deployment Architecture
  - Availability and Resiliency
  - Erasure Coding and Object Healing
  - Object Scanner
  - Site Replication and Failover
  - Thresholds and Limits
- Installation
  - Deployment Checklist
  - Deploy MinIO on Kubernetes
  - Deploy MinIO on Red Hat Linux
  - Deploy MinIO on Ubuntu Linux
  - Deploy MinIO for Development (MacOS, Windows, Container)
- Security and Encryption (Conceptual Overview)
  - Network Encryption (TLS) (Conceptual overview)
    - Enable Network Encryption using Single Domain
    - Enable Network Encryption using Multiple Domains
    - Enable Network Encryption using certmanager (Kubernetes only)
  - Data Encryption (SSE) (Conceptual overview)
    - Enable SSE using AIStor Key Management Server
    - Enable SSE using KES (Summary page + linkouts)
  - External Identity Management (Conceptual Overview)
    - Enable External Identity management using OpenID
    - Enable External Identity management using AD/LDAP
- Backup and Recovery
  - Create a Multi-Site Replication Configuration
  - Recovery after Hardware Failure
    - Recover after drive failure
    - Recover after node failure
    - Recover after site failure
- Monitoring and Alerts
  - Metrics and Alerting (v3 reference)
    - Monitoring and Alerting using Prometheus
    - Monitoring and Alerting using InfluxDB
    - Monitoring and Alerting using Grafana
    - Metrics V2 Reference
  - Publish Server and Audit Logs to External Services
  - MinIO Healthcheck API

The Administration, Developer, and Reference sections will remain as-is
for now.

# Goals

Maintaining multiple platforms is getting to be too much, and based on
analytics the actual number of users taking advantage of it is minimal.

Furthermore, the majority of traffic is to installation pages.

Therefore we're going to try to collapse back into a single MinIO Object
Storage product, and use simple navigation and on-page selectors to
handle Baremetal vs Kubernetes.

This may also help to eventually stage us to migrate to Hugo + Markdown

Deploy MinIO on Kubernetes

minio

Table of Contents

MinIO is a Kubernetes-native high performance object store with an S3-compatible API. The MinIO Kubernetes Operator supports deploying MinIO Tenants onto private and public cloud infrastructures ("Hybrid" Cloud).

All documentation assumes familiarity with referenced Kubernetes concepts, utilities, and procedures. While MinIO documentation may provide guidance for configuring or deploying Kubernetes-related resources on a best-effort basis, it is not a replacement for the official Kubernetes Documentation <>.

The MinIO Operator is a first-party Kubernetes-native operator that manages the deployment of MinIO Tenants onto Kubernetes infrastructure.

The Operator provides MinIO-centric functionality around Tenant management, including support for configuring all core MinIO features.

You can interact with the Operator through the MinIO Custom Resource Definition (CRD) <concepts/extend-kubernetes/api-extension/custom-resources/#customresourcedefinitions>, or through the Operator Console UI.

The CRD provides a highly customizable entry point for using tools like Kustomize for deploying Tenants. You can also use the MinIO Operator Console, a rich web-based UI that has complete support for deploying and configuring MinIO Tenants.

Important

The MinIO Operator Console UI is deprecated and removed in MinIO Operator 6.0.0.

You can continue to use standard Kubernetes approaches for MinIO Tenant management, such as Kustomize templates, Helm Charts, and kubectl commands for introspecting Tenant namespaces and resources.
