# Examples

This directory contains sample YAML config files that can be used for exploring Velero.

* `minio/`: Used in the [Quickstart][0] to set up [Minio][1], a local S3-compatible object storage service. It provides a convenient way to test Velero without tying you to a specific cloud provider.

* `nginx-app/`: A sample nginx app that can be used to test backups and restores.
