# Minio Multi-Tenant Deployment Guide [![Slack](https://slack.minio.io/slack?type=svg)](https://slack.minio.io) [![Go Report Card](https://goreportcard.com/badge/minio/minio)](https://goreportcard.com/report/minio/minio) [![Docker Pulls](https://img.shields.io/docker/pulls/minio/minio.svg?maxAge=604800)](https://hub.docker.com/r/minio/minio/) [![codecov](https://codecov.io/gh/minio/minio/branch/master/graph/badge.svg)](https://codecov.io/gh/minio/minio)
This topic provides commands to set up different configurations of hosts, nodes, and drives. The examples provided here can be used as a starting point for other configurations.
1. [Standalone Deployment](#standalone-deployment)
2. [Distributed Deployment](#distributed-deployment)
3. [Cloud Scale Deployment](#cloud-scale-deployment)
## <a name="standalone-deployment"></a>1. Standalone Deployment
To host multiple tenants on a single machine, run one Minio Server per tenant with a dedicated HTTPS port, configuration, and data directory.
### 1.1 Host Multiple Tenants on a Single Drive
Use the following commands to host 3 tenants on a single drive:
```sh
minio server --address :9001 /data/tenant1
minio server --address :9002 /data/tenant2
minio server --address :9003 /data/tenant3
```
![Example-1](https://github.com/minio/minio/blob/master/docs/screenshots/Example-1.jpg?raw=true)
### 1.2 Host Multiple Tenants on Multiple Drives (Erasure Code)
Use the following commands to host 3 tenants on multiple drives:
```sh
minio server --address :9001 /disk1/data/tenant1 /disk2/data/tenant1 /disk3/data/tenant1 /disk4/data/tenant1
minio server --address :9002 /disk1/data/tenant2 /disk2/data/tenant2 /disk3/data/tenant2 /disk4/data/tenant2
minio server --address :9003 /disk1/data/tenant3 /disk2/data/tenant3 /disk3/data/tenant3 /disk4/data/tenant3
```
![Example-2](https://github.com/minio/minio/blob/master/docs/screenshots/Example-2.jpg?raw=true)
## <a name="distributed-deployment"></a>2. Distributed Deployment
To host multiple tenants in a distributed environment, run several distributed Minio Server instances concurrently.
### 2.1 Host Multiple Tenants on Multiple Drives (Erasure Code)
Use the following commands to host 3 tenants on a 4-node distributed configuration:
```sh
export MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=<TENANT1_ACCESS_KEY>
export MINIO_SECRET_KEY=<TENANT1_SECRET_KEY>
minio server --address :9001 http://192.168.10.11/data/tenant1 http://192.168.10.12/data/tenant1 http://192.168.10.13/data/tenant1 http://192.168.10.14/data/tenant1
export MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=<TENANT2_ACCESS_KEY>
export MINIO_SECRET_KEY=<TENANT2_SECRET_KEY>
minio server --address :9002 http://192.168.10.11/data/tenant2 http://192.168.10.12/data/tenant2 http://192.168.10.13/data/tenant2 http://192.168.10.14/data/tenant2
export MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=<TENANT3_ACCESS_KEY>
export MINIO_SECRET_KEY=<TENANT3_SECRET_KEY>
minio server --address :9003 http://192.168.10.11/data/tenant3 http://192.168.10.12/data/tenant3 http://192.168.10.13/data/tenant3 http://192.168.10.14/data/tenant3
```
**Note:** Execute the commands on all 4 nodes.
![Example-3](https://github.com/minio/minio/blob/master/docs/screenshots/Example-3.jpg?raw=true)
**Note**: On distributed systems, credentials must be defined and exported using the `MINIO_ACCESS_KEY` and `MINIO_SECRET_KEY` environment variables. If a domain is required, it must be specified by defining and exporting the `MINIO_DOMAIN` environment variable.
## <a name="cloud-scale-deployment"></a>Cloud Scale Deployment
A container orchestration platform (e.g. Kubernetes, DC/OS, or Docker Swarm) is recommended for large-scale, multi-tenant Minio deployments. See the [Minio Deployment Quickstart Guide](https://docs.minio.io/docs/minio-deployment-quickstart-guide) to get started with Minio on orchestration platforms.
