I have done quick spike on minio and I think that we should support that by
default.
In fact support for it will be mostly documentation and thin wrapper for
our interface
As we are upstream solution we do not need to care about productization or
additional impact of using another service like minio.

This is really good example where community and open discussion works!
Thank you so much.

>From RainCatcher point of view we still need GridFS as it will be available
by default without any additional deployment etc.

Regards
