 ## Restic
 
+Create your key and bucket:
+
+```bash
+garage key new my-key
+garage bucket create backup
+garage bucket allow backup --read --write --key my-key
+```
+
+Then register your Key ID and Secret key in your environment:
+
+```bash
+export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=GKxxx
+export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=xxxx
+```
+
+Configure restic from environment too:
+
+```bash
+export RESTIC_REPOSITORY="s3:http://localhost:3900/backups"
+
+echo "Generated password (save it safely): $(openssl rand -base64 32)"
+export RESTIC_PASSWORD=xxx # copy paste your generated password here
+```
+
+Do not forget to save your password safely (in your password manager or print it). It will be needed to decrypt your backups.
+
+Now you can use restic:
+
+```bash
+# Initialize the bucket, must be run once
+restic init
+
+# Backup your PostgreSQL database
+# (We suppose your PostgreSQL daemon is stopped for all commands)
+restic backup /var/lib/postgresql
+
+# Show backup history
+restic snapshots
+
+# Backup again your PostgreSQL database, it will be faster as only changes will be uploaded
+restic backup /var/lib/postgresql
+
+# Show backup history (again)
+restic snapshots
+
+# Restore a backup
+# (79766175 is the ID of the snapshot you want to restore)
+mv /var/lib/postgresql /var/lib/postgresql.broken
+restic restore 79766175 --target /var/lib/postgresql
+```

+Restic has way more features than the ones presented here.
+You can discover all of them by accessing its documentation from the link below.

 ## Configuring a bucket for website access

+There are three methods to expose buckets as website:
 
 1. using the PutBucketWebsite S3 API call, which is allowed for access keys that have the owner permission bit set
 
 2. from the Garage CLI, by an adminstrator of the cluster
 
+3. using the Garage administration API
+
 The `PutBucketWebsite` API endpoint [is documented](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/API_PutBucketWebsite.html) in the official AWS docs.
 This endpoint can also be called [using `aws s3api`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/s3api/put-bucket-website.html) on the command line.
 The website configuration supported by Garage is only a subset of the possibilities on Amazon S3: redirections are not supported, only the index document and error document can be specified.

-## Using source from `crates.io`
+## Building from source from the Gitea repository
 
-Garage's source code is published on `crates.io`, Rust's official package repository.
-This means you can simply ask `cargo` to download and build this source code for you:
+The primary location for Garage's source code is the
+[Gitea repository](https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage),
+which contains all of the released versions as well as the code
+for the developpement of the next version.
+
+Clone the repository and enter it as follows:
 
 ```bash
-cargo install garage
+git clone https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage.git
+cd garage
 ```
 
-That's all, `garage` should be in `$HOME/.cargo/bin`.
-
-You can add this folder to your `$PATH` or copy the binary somewhere else on your system.
-For instance:
+If you wish to build a specific version of Garage, check out the corresponding tag. For instance:
 
 ```bash
-sudo cp $HOME/.cargo/bin/garage /usr/local/bin/garage
+git tag  				# List available tags
+git checkout v0.8.0		# Change v0.8.0 with the version you wish to build
 ```
 
+Otherwise you will be building a developpement build from the `main` branch
+that includes all of the changes to be released in the next version.
+Be careful that such a build might be unstable or contain bugs,
+and could be incompatible with nodes that run stable versions of Garage.
 
-## Using source from the Gitea repository
+Finally, build Garage with the following command:
 
-The primary location for Garage's source code is the
-[Gitea repository](https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage).
+```bash
+cargo build --release
+```
 
-Clone the repository and build Garage with the following commands:
+The binary built this way can now be found in `target/release/garage`.
+You may simply copy this binary to somewhere in your `$PATH` in order to
+have the `garage` command available in your shell, for instance:
 
 ```bash
-git clone https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage.git
-cd garage
-cargo build
+sudo cp target/release/garage /usr/local/bin/garage
 ```
 
-Be careful, as this will make a debug build of Garage, which will be extremely slow!
-To make a release build, invoke `cargo build --release` (this takes much longer).
+If you are planning to develop Garage,
+you might be interested in producing debug builds, which compile faster but run slower:
+this can be done by removing the `--release` flag, and the resulting build can then
+be found in `target/debug/garage`.
+
+## List of available Cargo feature flags
 
-The binaries built this way are found in `target/{debug,release}/garage`.
+Garage supports a number of compilation options in the form of Cargo feature flags,
+which can be used to provide builds adapted to your system and your use case.
+To produce a build with a given set of features, invoke the `cargo build` command
+as follows:
+
+```bash
+# This will build the default feature set plus feature1, feature2 and feature3
+cargo build --release --features feature1,feature2,feature3
+# This will build ONLY feature1, feature2 and feature3
+cargo build --release --no-default-features \
+            --features feature1,feature2,feature3
+```
 
+The following feature flags are available in v0.8.0:
+
+| Feature flag | Enabled | Description |
+| ------------ | ------- | ----------- |
+| `bundled-libs` | *by default* | Use bundled version of sqlite3, zstd, lmdb and libsodium |
+| `system-libs` | optional | Use system version of sqlite3, zstd, lmdb and libsodium<br>if available (exclusive with `bundled-libs`, build using<br>`cargo build --no-default-features --features system-libs`) |
+| `k2v` | optional | Enable the experimental K2V API (if used, all nodes on your<br>Garage cluster must have it enabled as well) |
+| `kubernetes-discovery` | optional | Enable automatic registration and discovery<br>of cluster nodes through the Kubernetes API |
+| `metrics` | *by default* | Enable collection of metrics in Prometheus format on the admin API |
+| `telemetry-otlp` | optional | Enable collection of execution traces using OpenTelemetry |
+| `sled` | *by default* | Enable using Sled to store Garage's metadata |
+| `lmdb` | optional | Enable using LMDB to store Garage's metadata |
+| `sqlite` | optional | Enable using Sqlite3 to store Garage's metadata |

+Garage can also be deployed on a kubernetes cluster via helm chart.
+
+## Deploying
+
+Firstly clone the repository:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage
+cd garage/scripts/helm
+```
+
+Deploy with default options:
+
+```bash
+helm install --create-namespace --namespace garage garage ./garage
+```
+
+Or deploy with custom values:
+
+```bash
+helm install --create-namespace --namespace garage garage ./garage -f values.override.yaml
+```
+
+After deploying, cluster layout must be configured manually as described in [Creating a cluster layout](@/documentation/quick-start/_index.md#creating-a-cluster-layout). Use the following command to access garage CLI:
+
+```bash
+kubectl exec --stdin --tty -n garage garage-0 -- ./garage status
+```
+
+## Overriding default values
+
+All possible configuration values can be found with:
+
+```bash
+helm show values ./garage
+```
+
+This is an example `values.overrride.yaml` for deploying in a microk8s cluster with a https s3 api ingress route:
+
+```yaml
+garage:
+  # Use only 2 replicas per object
+  replicationMode: "2"
+
+# Start 4 instances (StatefulSets) of garage
+replicaCount: 4
+
+# Override default storage class and size
+persistence:

+          hosts:
+            - s3-api.my-domain.com
+```
+
+## Removing
+
+```bash
+helm delete --namespace garage garage
+```
+
+Note that this will leave behind custom CRD `garagenodes.deuxfleurs.fr`, which must be removed manually if desired.

-## Traefik
+## Traefik v2
+
+We will see in this part how to set up a reverse proxy with [Traefik](https://docs.traefik.io/).
+
+Here is [a basic configuration file](https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/https/acme/#configuration-examples):
+
+```toml
+[entryPoints]
+  [entryPoints.web]
+    address = ":80"
+
+  [entryPoints.websecure]
+    address = ":443"
+
+[certificatesResolvers.myresolver.acme]
+  email = "your-email@example.com"
+  storage = "acme.json"
+  [certificatesResolvers.myresolver.acme.httpChallenge]
+    # used during the challenge
+    entryPoint = "web"
+```
+
+### Add Garage service
+
+To add Garage on Traefik you should declare a new service using its IP address (or hostname) and port:
+
+```toml
+[http.services]
+  [http.services.my_garage_service.loadBalancer]
+    [[http.services.my_garage_service.loadBalancer.servers]]
+      url = "http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
+      port = 3900
+```
+
+It's possible to declare multiple Garage servers as back-ends:
+
+```toml
+[http.services]
+    [[http.services.my_garage_service.loadBalancer.servers]]
+      url = "http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
+      port = 3900
+    [[http.services.my_garage_service.loadBalancer.servers]]
+      url = "http://yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy"
+      port = 3900
+    [[http.services.my_garage_service.loadBalancer.servers]]
+      url = "http://zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz"
+      port = 3900
+```
+
+Traefik can remove unhealthy servers automatically with [a health check configuration](https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/routing/services/#health-check):
+
+```
+[http.services]
+  [http.services.my_garage_service.loadBalancer]
+    [http.services.my_garage_service.loadBalancer.healthCheck]
+      path = "/"
+      interval = "60s"
+      timeout = "5s"
+```
+
+### Adding a website
+
+To add a new website, add the following declaration to your Traefik configuration file:
+
+```toml
+[http.routers]
+  [http.routers.my_website]
+    rule = "Host(`yoururl.example.org`)"
+    service = "my_garage_service"
+    entryPoints = ["web"]
+```
+
+Enable HTTPS access to your website with the following configuration section ([documentation](https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/https/overview/)):
+
+```toml
+...
+    entryPoints = ["websecure"]
+    [http.routers.my_website.tls]
+      certResolver = "myresolver"
+...
+```
+
+### Adding gzip compression
+
+Add the following configuration section [to compress response](https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/middlewares/http/compress/) using [gzip](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/GZip_compression) before sending them to the client:
+
+```toml
+[http.routers]
+  [http.routers.my_website]
+    ...
+    middlewares = ["gzip_compress"]
+    ...
+[http.middlewares]
+  [http.middlewares.gzip_compress.compress]
+```
+
+### Add caching response
+
+Traefik's caching middleware is only available on [entreprise version](https://doc.traefik.io/traefik-enterprise/middlewares/http-cache/), however the freely-available [Souin plugin](https://github.com/darkweak/souin#tr%C3%A6fik-container) can also do the job. (section to be completed)

+
+## Caddy
+
+Your Caddy configuration can be as simple as:
+
+```caddy
+s3.garage.tld, *.s3.garage.tld {
+	reverse_proxy localhost:3900 192.168.1.2:3900 example.tld:3900

+}
+
+admin.garage.tld {
+	reverse_proxy localhost:3903
+}
+```
+
+But at the same time, the `reverse_proxy` is very flexible.
+For a production deployment, you should [read its documentation](https://caddyserver.com/docs/caddyfile/directives/reverse_proxy) as it supports features like DNS discovery of upstreams, load balancing with checks, streaming parameters, etc.

+object storage protocol. It enables applications to store large blobs such
 as pictures, video, images, documents, etc., in a redundant multi-node
 setting. S3 is versatile enough to also be used to publish a static
 website.
 
 Garage is an opinionated object storage solutoin, we focus on the following **desirable properties**:
 
+  - **Internet enabled**: made for multi-sites (eg. datacenters, offices, households, etc.) interconnected through regular Internet connections.
   - **Self-contained & lightweight**: works everywhere and integrates well in existing environments to target [hyperconverged infrastructures](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyper-converged_infrastructure).
   - **Highly resilient**: highly resilient to network failures, network latency, disk failures, sysadmin failures.
   - **Simple**: simple to understand, simple to operate, simple to debug.
-  - **Internet enabled**: made for multi-sites (eg. datacenters, offices, households, etc.) interconnected through regular Internet connections.
 
 We also noted that the pursuit of some other goals are detrimental to our initial goals.

+## Request routing logic
+
+Data retrieval requests to Garage endpoints (S3 API and websites) are resolved 
+to an individual object in a bucket. Since objects are replicated to multiple nodes 
+Garage must ensure consistency before answering the request.
+
+### Using quorum to ensure consistency
+
+Garage ensures consistency by attempting to establish a quorum with the
+data nodes responsible for the object. When a majority of the data nodes
+have provided metadata on a object Garage can then answer the request.
+
+When a request arrives Garage will, assuming the recommended 3 replicas, perform the following actions:
+
+- Make a request to the two preferred nodes for object metadata
+- Try the third node if one of the two initial requests fail
+- Check that the metadata from at least 2 nodes match
+- Check that the object hasn't been marked deleted
+- Answer the request with inline data from metadata if object is small enough
+- Or get data blocks from the preferred nodes and answer using the assembled object
+
+Garage dynamically determines which nodes to query based on health, preference, and 
+which nodes actually host a given data. Garage has no concept of "primary" so any 
+healthy node with the data can be used as long as a quorum is reached for the metadata.
+
+### Node health
+
+Garage keeps a TCP session open to each node in the cluster and periodically pings them. If a connection
+cannot be established, or a node fails to answer a number of pings, the target node is marked as failed.
+Failed nodes are not used for quorum or other internal requests.
+
+### Node preference
+
+Garage prioritizes which nodes to query according to a few criteria:
+
+- A node always prefers itself if it can answer the request
+- Then the node prioritizes nodes in the same zone
+- Finally the nodes with the lowest latency are prioritized 
+
+
+For further reading on the cluster structure look at the [gateway](@/documentation/cookbook/gateways.md) 
+and [cluster layout management](@/documentation/reference-manual/layout.md) pages.

-The best way is to add the following snippet to your `$HOME/.bash_profile`

+
+The Garage administration API is accessible through a dedicated server whose
+listen address is specified in the `[admin]` section of the configuration
+file (see [configuration file
+reference](@/documentation/reference-manual/configuration.md))
+
+**WARNING.** At this point, there is no comittement to stability of the APIs described in this document.
+We will bump the version numbers prefixed to each API endpoint at each time the syntax
+or semantics change, meaning that code that relies on these endpoint will break
+when changes are introduced.
+
+The Garage administration API was introduced in version 0.7.2, this document
+does not apply to older versions of Garage.
+
+
+## Access control
+
+The admin API uses two different tokens for acces control, that are specified in the config file's `[admin]` section:
+
+- `metrics_token`: the token for accessing the Metrics endpoint (if this token
+  is not set in the config file, the Metrics endpoint can be accessed without
+  access control);
+
+- `admin_token`: the token for accessing all of the other administration
+  endpoints (if this token is not set in the config file, access to these
+  endpoints is disabled entirely).
+
+These tokens are used as simple HTTP bearer tokens. In other words, to
+authenticate access to an admin API endpoint, add the following HTTP header
+to your request:
+
+```
+Authorization: Bearer <token>
+```
+
+## Administration API endpoints
+
+### Metrics-related endpoints
+
+#### Metrics `GET /metrics`
+
+Returns internal Garage metrics in Prometheus format.
+
+### Cluster operations
+
+#### GetClusterStatus `GET /v0/status`
+
+Returns the cluster's current status in JSON, including:
+
+- ID of the node being queried and its version of the Garage daemon
+- Live nodes
+- Currently configured cluster layout
+- Staged changes to the cluster layout

+    }
+]
+```
+
+#### GetClusterLayout `GET /v0/layout`
+
+Returns the cluster's current layout in JSON, including:
+
+- Currently configured cluster layout
+- Staged changes to the cluster layout
+
+(the info returned by this endpoint is a subset of the info returned by GetClusterStatus)

+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### UpdateClusterLayout `POST /v0/layout`
+
+Send modifications to the cluster layout. These modifications will
+be included in the staged role changes, visible in subsequent calls
+of `GetClusterLayout`. Once the set of staged changes is satisfactory,
+the user may call `ApplyClusterLayout` to apply the changed changes,
+or `Revert ClusterLayout` to clear all of the staged changes in
+the layout.
+
+Request body format:
+
+```json
+{
+  <node_id>: {
+    "capacity": <new_capacity>,
+    "zone": <new_zone>,
+    "tags": [
+      <new_tag>,
+      ...
+    ]
+  },
+  <node_id_to_remove>: null,
+  ...
+}
+```
+
+Contrary to the CLI that may update only a subset of the fields
+`capacity`, `zone` and `tags`, when calling this API all of these
+values must be specified.
+
+
+#### ApplyClusterLayout `POST /v0/layout/apply`
+
+Applies to the cluster the layout changes currently registered as
+staged layout changes.
+
+Request body format:
+
+```json
+{
+  "version": 13
+}
+```
+
+Similarly to the CLI, the body must include the version of the new layout
+that will be created, which MUST be 1 + the value of the currently
+existing layout in the cluster.
+
+#### RevertClusterLayout `POST /v0/layout/revert`
+
+Clears all of the staged layout changes.
+
+Request body format:
+
+```json
+{
+  "version": 13
+}
+```
+
+Reverting the staged changes is done by incrementing the version number
+and clearing the contents of the staged change list.
+Similarly to the CLI, the body must include the incremented
+version number, which MUST be 1 + the value of the currently
+existing layout in the cluster.
+
+
+### Access key operations
+
+#### ListKeys `GET /v0/key`
+
+Returns all API access keys in the cluster.
+
+Example response:
+
+```json

+    "name": "test"
+  },
+  {
+    "id": "GKe10061ac9c2921f09e4c5540",
+    "name": "test2"
+  }
+]
+```
+
+#### CreateKey `POST /v0/key`
+
+Creates a new API access key.
+
+Request body format:
+
+```json
+{
+    "name": "NameOfMyKey"
+}
+```
+
+#### ImportKey `POST /v0/key/import`
+
+Imports an existing API key.
+
+Request body format:
+
+```json
+{
+    "accessKeyId": "GK31c2f218a2e44f485b94239e",
+    "secretAccessKey": "b892c0665f0ada8a4755dae98baa3b133590e11dae3bcc1f9d769d67f16c3835",
+    "name": "NameOfMyKey"
+}
+```
+
+#### GetKeyInfo `GET /v0/key?id=<acces key id>`
+#### GetKeyInfo `GET /v0/key?search=<pattern>`
+
+Returns information about the requested API access key.
+
+If `id` is set, the key is looked up using its exact identifier (faster).
+If `search` is set, the key is looked up using its name or prefix
+of identifier (slower, all keys are enumerated to do this).
+
+Example response:

+
+Returns information about the requested storage bucket.
+
+If `id` is set, the bucket is looked up using its exact identifier.
+If `globalAlias` is set, the bucket is looked up using its global alias.
+(both are fast)
+
+Example response:
+
+```json
+{

+        }
+}
+```
+
+#### CreateBucket `POST /v0/bucket`
+
+Creates a new storage bucket.
+
+Request body format:
+
+```json
+{
+    "globalAlias": "NameOfMyBucket"
+}
+```
+
+OR
+
+```json
+{
+    "localAlias": {
+        "accessKeyId": "GK31c2f218a2e44f485b94239e",

+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+OR
+
+```json
+{}
+```
+
+Creates a new bucket, either with a global alias, a local one,
+or no alias at all.
+
+Technically, you can also specify both `globalAlias` and `localAlias` and that would create
+two aliases, but I don't see why you would want to do that.
+
+#### DeleteBucket `DELETE /v0/bucket?id=<bucket id>`
+
+Deletes a storage bucket. A bucket cannot be deleted if it is not empty.
+
+Warning: this will delete all aliases associated with the bucket!
+
+#### UpdateBucket `PUT /v0/bucket?id=<bucket id>`
+
+Updates configuration of the given bucket.
+
+Request body format:
+
+```json
+{
+    "websiteAccess": {
+        "enabled": true,
+        "indexDocument": "index.html",
+        "errorDocument": "404.html"
+    },
+    "quotas": {
+        "maxSize": 19029801,
+        "maxObjects": null,
+    }
+}
+```
+
+All fields (`websiteAccess` and `quotas`) are optionnal.
+If they are present, the corresponding modifications are applied to the bucket, otherwise nothing is changed.
+
+In `websiteAccess`: if `enabled` is `true`, `indexDocument` must be specified.
+The field `errorDocument` is optional, if no error document is set a generic
+error message is displayed when errors happen. Conversely, if `enabled` is
+`false`, neither `indexDocument` nor `errorDocument` must be specified.
+
+In `quotas`: new values of `maxSize` and `maxObjects` must both be specified, or set to `null`
+to remove the quotas. An absent value will be considered the same as a `null`. It is not possible
+to change only one of the two quotas.
+
+### Operations on permissions for keys on buckets
+
+#### BucketAllowKey `POST /v0/bucket/allow`
+
+Allows a key to do read/write/owner operations on a bucket.
+
+Request body format:
+
+```json
+{
+    "bucketId": "e6a14cd6a27f48684579ec6b381c078ab11697e6bc8513b72b2f5307e25fff9b",

+        "read": true,
+        "write": true,
+        "owner": true
+    },
+}
+```
+
+Flags in `permissions` which have the value `true` will be activated.
+Other flags will remain unchanged.
+
+#### BucketDenyKey `POST /v0/bucket/deny`
+
+Denies a key from doing read/write/owner operations on a bucket.
+
+Request body format:
+
+```json
+{
+    "bucketId": "e6a14cd6a27f48684579ec6b381c078ab11697e6bc8513b72b2f5307e25fff9b",

+### `db_engine` (since `v0.8.0`)
+
+By default, Garage uses the Sled embedded database library
+to store its metadata on-disk. Since `v0.8.0`, Garage can use alternative storage backends as follows:
+
+| DB engine | `db_engine` value | Database path |
+| --------- | ----------------- | ------------- |
+| [Sled](https://sled.rs) | `"sled"` | `<metadata_dir>/db/` |
+| [LMDB](https://www.lmdb.tech) | `"lmdb"` | `<metadata_dir>/db.lmdb/` |
+| [Sqlite](https://sqlite.org) | `"sqlite"` | `<metadata_dir>/db.sqlite` |
+
+Performance characteristics of the different DB engines are as follows:
+
+- Sled: the default database engine, which tends to produce
+  large data files and also has performance issues, especially when the metadata folder
+  is on a traditionnal HDD and not on SSD.
+- LMDB: the recommended alternative on 64-bit systems,
+  much more space-efficiant and slightly faster. Note that the data format of LMDB is not portable
+  between architectures, so for instance the Garage database of an x86-64
+  node cannot be moved to an ARM64 node. Also note that, while LMDB can technically be used on 32-bit systems,
+  this will limit your node to very small database sizes due to how LMDB works; it is therefore not recommended.
+- Sqlite: Garage supports Sqlite as a storage backend for metadata,
+  however it may have issues and is also very slow in its current implementation,
+  so it is not recommended to be used for now.
+
+It is possible to convert Garage's metadata directory from one format to another with a small utility named `convert_db`,
+which can be downloaded at the following locations:
+[for amd64](https://garagehq.deuxfleurs.fr/_releases/convert_db/amd64/convert_db),
+[for i386](https://garagehq.deuxfleurs.fr/_releases/convert_db/i386/convert_db),

+[for arm](https://garagehq.deuxfleurs.fr/_releases/convert_db/arm/convert_db).
+The `convert_db` utility is used as folows:
+
+```
+convert-db -a <input db engine> -i <input db path> \
+  		   -b <output db engine> -o <output db path>
+```
+
+Make sure to specify the full database path as presented in the table above,
+and not just the path to the metadata directory.

+
+### S3 API
+
+The main goal of Garage is to provide an object storage service that is compatible with the
+[S3 API](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/Welcome.html) from Amazon Web Services.
+We try to adhere as strictly as possible to the semantics of the API as implemented by Amazon
+and other vendors such as Minio or CEPH.
+
+Of course Garage does not implement the full span of API endpoints that AWS S3 does;
+the exact list of S3 features implemented by Garage can be found [on our S3 compatibility page](@/documentation/reference-manual/s3-compatibility.md).
+
+### Geo-distribution
+
+Garage allows you to store copies of your data in multiple geographical locations in order to maximize resilience
+to adverse events, such as network/power outages or hardware failures.
+This allows Garage to run very well even at home, using consumer-grade Internet connectivity
+(such as FTTH) and power, as long as cluster nodes can be spawned at several physical locations.
+Garage exploits knowledge of the capacity and physical location of each storage node to design
+a storage plan that best exploits the available storage capacity while satisfying the geo-distributed replication constraint.
+
+To learn more about geo-distributed Garage clusters,
+read our documentation on [setting up a real-world deployment](@/documentation/cookbook/real-world.md).
+
+### Standalone/self-contained
+
+Garage is extremely simple to deploy, and does not depend on any external service to run.
+This makes setting up and administering storage clusters, we hope, as easy as it could be.
+
+### Flexible topology
+
+A Garage cluster can very easily evolve over time, as storage nodes are added or removed.
+Garage will automatically rebalance data between nodes as needed to ensure the desired number of copies.
+Read about cluster layout management [here](@/documentation/reference-manual/layout.md).
+
+### No RAFT slowing you down
+
+It might seem strange to tout the absence of something as a desirable feature,
+but this is in fact a very important point! Garage does not use RAFT or another
+consensus algorithm internally to order incoming requests: this means that all requests
+directed to a Garage cluster can be handled independently of one another instead
+of going through a central bottleneck (the leader node).
+As a consequence, requests can be handled much faster, even in cases where latency
+between cluster nodes is important (see our [benchmarks](@/documentation/design/benchmarks/index.md) for data on this).
+This is particularly usefull when nodes are far from one another and talk to one other through standard Internet connections.
+
+### Several replication modes
+
+Garage supports a variety of replication modes, with 1 copy, 2 copies or 3 copies of your data,
+and with various levels of consistency, in order to adapt to a variety of usage scenarios.
+Read our reference page on [supported replication modes](@/documentation/reference-manual/configuration.md#replication-mode)
+to select the replication mode best suited to your use case (hint: in most cases, `replication_mode = "3"` is what you want).
+
+### Web server for static websites
+
+A storage bucket can easily be configured to be served directly by Garage as a static web site.
+Domain names for multiple websites directly map to bucket names, making it easy to build
+a platform for your users to autonomously build and host their websites over Garage.
+Surprisingly, none of the other alternative S3 implementations we surveyed (such as Minio
+or CEPH) support publishing static websites from S3 buckets, a feature that is however
+directly inherited from S3 on AWS.
+Read more on our [dedicated documentation page](@/documentation/cookbook/exposing-websites.md).
+
+### Bucket names as aliases
+
+In Garage, a bucket may have several names, known as aliases.
+Aliases can easily be added and removed on demand:
+this allows to easily rename buckets if needed
+without having to copy all of their content, something that cannot be done on AWS.
+For buckets served as static websites, having multiple aliases for a bucket can allow
+exposing the same content under different domain names.
+
+Garage also supports bucket aliases which are local to a single user:
+this allows different users to have different buckets with the same name, thus avoiding naming collisions.
+This can be helpfull for instance if you want to write an application that creates per-user buckets with always the same name.
+
+This feature is totally invisible to S3 clients and does not break compatibility with AWS.
+
+### Cluster administration API
+
+Garage provides a fully-fledged REST API to administer your cluster programatically.
+Functionnality included in the admin API include: setting up and monitoring
+cluster nodes, managing access credentials, and managing storage buckets and bucket aliases.
+A full reference of the administration API is available [here](@/documentation/reference-manual/admin-api.md).
+
+### Metrics and traces
+
+Garage makes some internal metrics available in the Prometheus data format,
+which allows you to build interactive dashboards to visualize the load and internal state of your storage cluster.
+
+For developpers and performance-savvy administrators,
+Garage also supports exporting traces of what it does internally in OpenTelemetry format.
+This allows to monitor the time spent at various steps of the processing of requests,
+in order to detect potential performance bottlenecks.
+
+### Kubernetes and Nomad integrations
+
+Garage can automatically discover other nodes in the cluster thanks to integration
+with orchestrators such as Kubernetes and Nomad (when used with Consul).
+This eases the configuration of your cluster as it removes one step where nodes need
+to be manually connected to one another.
+
+### Support for changing IP addresses
+
+As long as all of your nodes don't thange their IP address at the same time,
+Garage should be able to tolerate nodes with changing/dynamic IP addresses,
+as nodes will regularly exchange the IP addresses of their peers and try to
+reconnect using newer addresses when existing connections are broken.
+
+### K2V API (experimental)
+
+As part of an ongoing research project, Garage can expose an experimental key/value storage API called K2V.
+K2V is made for the storage and retrieval of many small key/value pairs that need to be processed in bulk.
+This completes the S3 API with an alternative that can be used to easily store and access metadata
+related to objects stored in an S3 bucket.
+
+In the context of our research project, [Aérogramme](https://aerogramme.deuxfleurs.fr),
+K2V is used to provide metadata and log storage for operations on encrypted e-mail storage.
+
+Learn more on the specification of K2V [here](https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage/src/branch/k2v/doc/drafts/k2v-spec.md)
+and on how to enable it in Garage [here](@/documentation/reference-manual/k2v.md).

+
+Starting with version 0.7.2, Garage introduces an optionnal feature, K2V,
+which is an alternative storage API designed to help efficiently store
+many small values in buckets (in opposition to S3 which is more designed
+to store large blobs).
+
+K2V is currently disabled at compile time in all builds, as the
+specification is still subject to changes. To build a Garage version with
+K2V, the Cargo feature flag `k2v` must be activated.  Special builds with
+the `k2v` feature flag enabled can be obtained from our download page under
+"Extra builds": such builds can be identified easily as their tag name ends
+with `-k2v` (example: `v0.7.2-k2v`).
+
+The specification of the K2V API can be found
+[here](https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage/src/branch/k2v/doc/drafts/k2v-spec.md).
+This document also includes a high-level overview of K2V's design.
+
+The K2V API uses AWSv4 signatures for authentification, same as the S3 API.
+The AWS region used for signature calculation is always the same as the one
+defined for the S3 API in the config file.
+
+## Enabling and using K2V
+
+To enable K2V, download and run a build that has the `k2v` feature flag
+enabled, or produce one yourself. Then, add the following section to your
+configuration file:
+
+```toml
+[k2v_api]
+api_bind_addr = "<ip>:<port>"
+```
+
+Please select a port number that is not already in use by another API
+endpoint (S3 api, admin API) or by the RPC server.
+
+We provide an early-stage K2V client library for Rust which can be imported by adding the following to your `Cargo.toml` file:
+
+```toml
+k2v-client = { git = "https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage.git" }
+```
+
+There is also a simple CLI utility which can be built from source in the
+following way:
+
+```sh
+git clone https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage.git
+cd garage/src/k2v-client
+cargo build --features cli --bin k2v-cli
+```
+
+The CLI utility is self-documented, run `k2v-cli --help` to learn how to use
+it. There is also a short README.md in the `src/k2v-client` folder with some
+instructions.

-Data retrieval requests to Garage endpoints (S3 API and websites) are resolved 
-to an individual object in a bucket. Since objects are replicated to multiple nodes 
-Garage must ensure consistency before answering the request.
-
-## Using quorum to ensure consistency
-
-Garage ensures consistency by attempting to establish a quorum with the
-data nodes responsible for the object. When a majority of the data nodes
-have provided metadata on a object Garage can then answer the request.
-
-When a request arrives Garage will, assuming the recommended 3 replicas, perform the following actions:
-
-- Make a request to the two preferred nodes for object metadata
-- Try the third node if one of the two initial requests fail
-- Check that the metadata from at least 2 nodes match
-- Check that the object hasn't been marked deleted
-- Answer the request with inline data from metadata if object is small enough
-- Or get data blocks from the preferred nodes and answer using the assembled object
-
-Garage dynamically determines which nodes to query based on health, preference, and 
-which nodes actually host a given data. Garage has no concept of "primary" so any 
-healthy node with the data can be used as long as a quorum is reached for the metadata.
-
-## Node health
-
-Garage keeps a TCP session open to each node in the cluster and periodically pings them. If a connection
-cannot be established, or a node fails to answer a number of pings, the target node is marked as failed.
-Failed nodes are not used for quorum or other internal requests.
-
-## Node preference
-
-Garage prioritizes which nodes to query according to a few criteria:
-
-- A node always prefers itself if it can answer the request
-- Then the node prioritizes nodes in the same zone
-- Finally the nodes with the lowest latency are prioritized 
-

+**This guide explains how to migrate to 0.8 if you have an existing 0.7 cluster.
+We don't recommend trying to migrate to 0.8 directly from 0.6 or older.**
+
+**We make no guarantee that this migration will work perfectly:
+back up all your data before attempting it!**
+
+Garage v0.8 introduces new data tables that allow the counting of objects in buckets in order to implement bucket quotas.
+A manual migration step is required to first count objects in Garage buckets and populate these tables with accurate data.
+
+The migration steps are as follows:
+
+1. Disable API and web access. Garage v0.7 does not support disabling
+   these endpoints but you can change the port number or stop your reverse proxy for instance.
+2. Do `garage repair --all-nodes --yes tables` and `garage repair --all-nodes --yes blocks`,
+   check the logs and check that all data seems to be synced correctly between
+   nodes. If you have time, do additional checks (`scrub`, `block_refs`, etc.)
+3. Check that queues are empty: run `garage stats` to query them or inspect metrics in the Grafana dashboard.
+4. Turn off Garage v0.7
+5. **Backup the metadata folder of all your nodes!** For instance, use the following command
+	if your metadata directory is `/var/lib/garage/meta`: `cd /var/lib/garage ; tar -acf meta-v0.7.tar.zst meta/`
+6. Install Garage v0.8
+7. **Before starting Garage v0.8**, run the offline migration step: `garage offline-repair --yes object_counters`.
+   This can take a while to run, depending on the number of objects stored in your cluster.
+8. Turn on Garage v0.8
+9. Do `garage repair --all-nodes --yes tables` and `garage repair --all-nodes --yes blocks`.
+   Wait for a full table sync to run.
+10. Your upgraded cluster should be in a working state. Re-enable API and Web
+    access and check that everything went well.
+11. Monitor your cluster in the next hours to see if it works well under your production load, report any issue.
