🚀 Quick Start
1. Deploy KMS in 5 Minutes
Production (Vault backend)
# 1. Enable the Vault feature flag
cargo build --features vault --release
# 2. Configure environment variables
export RUSTFS_VAULT_ADDRESS=https://vault.company.com:8200
export RUSTFS_VAULT_TOKEN=hvs.CAESIJ...
# 3. Launch the service
./target/release/rustfs server
Development & Testing (Local backend)
# 1. Build a release binary
cargo build --release
# 2. Configure local storage
export RUSTFS_KMS_BACKEND=Local
export RUSTFS_KMS_LOCAL_KEY_DIR=/tmp/rustfs-keys
# 3. Launch the service
./target/release/rustfs server
2. S3-Compatible Encryption
# Upload an encrypted object
curl -X PUT https://rustfs.company.com/bucket/sensitive.txt \
-H "x-amz-server-side-encryption: AES256" \
--data-binary @sensitive.txt
# Download with automatic decryption
curl https://rustfs.company.com/bucket/sensitive.txt
