+#### SSE-C encryption (since Garage v1.0)
+
+Since version 1.0, Garage supports server-side encryption with customer keys
+(SSE-C). In this mode, Garage is responsible for encrypting and decrypting
+objects, but it does not store the encryption key itself. The encryption key
+should be provided by Nextcloud upon each request. This mode of operation is
+supported by Nextcloud and it has successfully been tested together with
+Garage.
+
+To enable SSE-C encryption:
+
+1. Make sure your Garage server is accessible via SSL through a reverse proxy
+ such as Nginx, and that it is using a valid public certificate (Nextcloud
+ might be able to connect to an S3 server that is using a self-signed
+ certificate, but you will lose many hours while trying, so don't).
+ Configure values for `use_ssl` and `port` accordingly in your `config.php`
+ file.
+
+2. Generate an encryption key using the following command:
+
+ ```
+ openssl rand -base64 32
+ ```
+
+ Make sure to keep this key **secret**!
+
+3. Add the encryption key in your `config.php` file as follows:
+
+
+ ```php
+ <?php
+ $CONFIG = array(
+ 'objectstore' => [
+ 'class' => '\\OC\\Files\\ObjectStore\\S3',
+ 'arguments' => [
+ ...
+ 'sse_c_key' => 'exampleencryptionkeyLbU+5fKYQcVoqnn+RaIOXgo=',
+ ...
+ ],
+ ],
+ ```
+
+Nextcloud will now make Garage encrypt files at rest in the storage bucket.
+These files will not be readable by an S3 client that has credentials to the
+bucket but doesn't also know the secret encryption key.
+
+

+## Garage stores data in plain text on the filesystem or encrypted using customer keys (SSE-C)
+
+For standard S3 API requests, Garage does not encrypt data at rest by itself.
+For the most generic at rest encryption of data, we recommend setting up your
+storage partitions on encrypted LUKS devices.
+
+If you are developping your own client software that makes use of S3 storage,
+we recommend implementing data encryption directly on the client side and never
+transmitting plaintext data to Garage. This makes it easy to use an external
+untrusted storage provider if necessary.
+
+Garage does support [SSE-C
+encryption](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/ServerSideEncryptionCustomerKeys.html),
+an encryption mode of Amazon S3 where data is encrypted at rest using
+encryption keys given by the client. The encryption keys are passed to the
+server in a header in each request, to encrypt or decrypt data at the moment of
+reading or writing. The server discards the key as soon as it has finished
+using it for the request. This mode allows the data to be encrypted at rest by
+Garage itself, but it requires support in the client software. It is also not
+adapted to a model where the server is not trusted or assumed to be
+compromised, as the server can easily know the encryption keys. Note however
+that when using SSE-C encryption, the only Garage node that knows the
+encryption key passed in a given request is the node to which the request is
+directed (which can be a gateway node), so it is easy to have untrusted nodes
+in the cluster as long as S3 API requests containing SSE-C encryption keys are
+not directed to them.
+
+Implementing automatic data encryption directly in Garage without client-side
+management of keys (something like
+[SSE-S3](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/UsingServerSideEncryption.html))
+could make things simpler for end users that don't want to setup LUKS, but also
+raises many more questions, especially around key management: for encryption of
+data, where could Garage get the encryption keys from? If we encrypt data but
+keep the keys in a plaintext file next to them, it's useless. We probably don't
+want to have to manage secrets in Garage as it would be very hard to do in a
+secure way. At the time of speaking, there are no plans to implement this in

+title = "Migrating from 0.9 to 1.0"
+weight = 11
++++
+
+**This guide explains how to migrate to 1.0 if you have an existing 0.9 cluster.
+We don't recommend trying to migrate to 1.0 directly from 0.8 or older.**
+
+This migration procedure has been tested on several clusters without issues.
+However, it is still a *critical procedure* that might cause issues.
+**Make sure to back up all your data before attempting it!**
+
+You might also want to read our [general documentation on upgrading Garage](@/documentation/operations/upgrading.md).
+
+## Changes introduced in v1.0
+
+The following are **breaking changes** in Garage v1.0 that require your attention when migrating:
+
+- The Sled metadata db engine has been **removed**. If your cluster was still
+ using Sled, you will need to **use a Garage v0.9.x binary** to convert the
+ database using the `garage convert-db` subcommand. See
+ [here](@/documentation/reference-manual/configuration/#db_engine) for the
+ details of the procedure.
+
+The following syntax changes have been made to the configuration file:
+
+- The `replication_mode` parameter has been split into two parameters:
+ [`replication_factor`](@/documentation/reference-manual/configuration/#replication_factor)
+ and
+ [`consistency_mode`](@/documentation/reference-manual/configuration/#consistency_mode).
+ The old syntax using `replication_mode` is still supported for legacy
+ reasons and can still be used.
+
+- The parameters `sled_cache_capacity` and `sled_flush_every_ms` have been removed.
+
+## Migration procedure
+
+The migration to Garage v1.0 can be done with almost no downtime,
+by restarting all nodes at once in the new version.
+
+The migration steps are as follows:
+
+1. Do a `garage repair --all-nodes --yes tables`, check the logs and check that
+ all data seems to be synced correctly between nodes. If you have time, do
+ additional `garage repair` procedures (`blocks`, `versions`, `block_refs`,
+ etc.)
+
+2. Ensure you have a snapshot of your Garage installation that you can restore
+ to in case the upgrade goes wrong:
+
+ - If you are running Garage v0.9.4 or later, use the `garage meta snapshot
+ --all` to make a backup snapshot of the metadata directories of your nodes
+ for backup purposes, and save a copy of the following files in the
+ metadata directories of your nodes: `cluster_layout`, `data_layout`,
+ `node_key`, `node_key.pub`.
+
+ - If you are running a filesystem such as ZFS or BTRFS that support
+ snapshotting, you can create a filesystem-level snapshot to be used as a
+ restoration point if needed.
+
+ - In other cases, make a backup using the old procedure: turn off each node
+ individually; back up its metadata folder (for instance, use the following
+ command if your metadata directory is `/var/lib/garage/meta`: `cd
+ /var/lib/garage ; tar -acf meta-v0.9.tar.zst meta/`); turn it back on
+ again. This will allow you to take a backup of all nodes without
+ impacting global cluster availability. You can do all nodes of a single
+ zone at once as this does not impact the availability of Garage.
+
+3. Prepare your updated binaries and configuration files for Garage v1.0
+
+4. Shut down all v0.9 nodes simultaneously, and restart them all simultaneously
+ in v1.0. Use your favorite deployment tool (Ansible, Kubernetes, Nomad) to
+ achieve this as fast as possible. Garage v1.0 should be in a working state
+ as soon as enough nodes have started.
+
+5. Monitor your cluster in the following hours to see if it works well under
+ your production load.
