Grafana Loki Installation Deploy on Kubernetes Configure storage

Configure Loki’s storage

The scalable installation requires a managed object store such as AWS S3 or Google Cloud Storage or a self-hosted store such as Minio. The single binary installation can only use the filesystem for storage.

This guide assumes Loki has been installed in on of the modes above and that a values.yaml has been created.

To use a managed object store:

1. Set the type of storage in values.yaml to gcs or s3.

2. Configure the storage client under storage.gcs or storage.s3.

To install Minio alongside Loki:

1. Change the configuration in values.yaml:

   • Enable Minio

   minio:
     enabled: true
