MinIO Gateway comes with an embedded web-based object browser that outputs content to http://127.0.0.1:9000. To test that MinIO Gateway is running, open a web browser, navigate to http://127.0.0.1:9000, and ensure that the object browser is displayed.
MinIO Client is a command-line tool called `mc` that provides UNIX-like commands for interacting with the server (e.g. ls, cat, cp, mirror, diff, find, etc.). `mc` supports file systems and Amazon S3-compatible cloud storage services (AWS Signature v2 and v4).
* It only supports read-only and write-only bucket policies at the bucket level; all other variations will return `API Not implemented`.
* The `List Multipart Uploads` and `List Object parts` commands always return empty lists. Therefore, the client must store all of the parts that it has uploaded and use that information when invoking the `_Complete Multipart Upload` command.
