MinIO going private / maintenance mode

[Aspyryan]

Since MinIO is in maintenance mode right now. Is there an alternative that tempo will / can use? The helm and docker examples still use minio

[joe-elliott]

Helm, docker AND integration tests!

Yes, this is on our todo list but we haven't gotten to it quite yet. All of our usages are for testing/example purposes so we will likely just move to any of the competing projects that is the most reliably maintained and works with Tempo. We have no real production requirements. We simply want something that's maintained as long as possible to prevent toil.

If you have opinions or would like to file a PR please do!

we'll also be updating the documentation with whatever solution is chosen.
