And the naming conflicts with NVidia's AIStore (https://github.com/NVIDIA/aistore). The two products are extremely similar. I don't know which came first, but Minio is going to want to do another pivot very soon if they want to survive. I doubt they have the resources to stand up to NVidia's army of extremely well-paid IP lawyers.
Naming the product “AIStor” is one of the most blatant forced AI branding pivots I’ve seen.
