> an optional dependency

I second Justin's opinion, while "an opt dep" generally means: if you
use it only for test, it should be fine; if you support user to self
deploy or get a provision by themselves, and use your ALv2 licensed
SDK to connect to it, it should be fine.

But if you'd like to bundle the source form or object form of minio
(AGPLv3 licensed work), then the situation would be complex.

Best,
tison.
