- All the nodes running distributed Minio need to have same access key and secret key for the nodes to connect. To achieve this, you need to export access key and secret key as environment variables on all the nodes before executing Minio server command.

- All the nodes running distributed Minio need to have same access key and secret key for the nodes to connect. To achieve this, it is **mandatory** to export access key and secret key as environment variables, `MINIO_ACCESS_KEY` and `MINIO_SECRET_KEY`, on all the nodes before executing Minio server command.
|

- All the nodes running distributed Minio need to be on homogenous environments i.e same operating system, same number of disks and same interconnects.
|
||||
- `MINIO_DOMAIN` environment variable should be defined and exported if domain is needed to be set.
|
||||
- Minio distributed mode requires fresh directories. If required, the drives can be shared with other applications. You can do this by using a sub-directory exclusive to minio. For example, if you have mounted your volume under `/export`, pass `/export/data` as arguments to Minio server.
|

- The IP addresses and drive paths below are for demonstration purposes only, you need to replace these with the actual IP addresses and drive paths/folders.
|
||||
- Servers running distributed Minio instances should be less than 3 seconds apart. You can use [NTP](http://www.ntp.org/) as a best practice to ensure consistent times across servers.

Please remember that defining and exporting credential environment variables, `MINIO_ACCESS_KEY` and `MINIO_SECRET_KEY`, is **mandatory** on distributed deployments. It is also required to define and export domain environment variable, `MINIO_DOMAIN`, if domain information is needed to be set.

## Cloud Scale Deployment
|
||||
|
||||
For large scale multi-tenant Minio deployments, we recommend using one of the popular container orchestration platforms, e.g. Kubernetes, DC/OS or Docker Swarm. Refer [this document](https://docs.minio.io/docs/minio-deployment-quickstart-guide) to get started with Minio on orchestration platforms.
