Running the quickstart snippet I get a bunch of errors and a warning that my anthropic key is not set. Smells vibe coded!

Working on a few fixes now. Will update the quick start and let you know when it’s all set!

I thought we were all ditching minio as it is no longer maintained

I still find it useful as a local blob storage and no big code changes to cut over to s3 since it’s the same APIs

where are you using this in production?

For systems that can tolerate slightly higher latency, and prefer operational simplicity. A good example would be a ecommerce platform that is streaming order history into a data warehouse. They likely don’t need sub-millisecond latency that Kafka provides, and can use a simpler, significantly cheaper option to achieve the same result
