S3-compatible object storage differs from a classic filesystem or single-disk backup server. Production design should combine node/disk failure domains, erasure coding, versioning, IAM, TLS, monitoring and capacity growth. Current MinIO AIStor production guidance is built around multi-host clusters with homogeneous resources.
Current MinIO AIStor docs describe production deployments with at least eight homogeneous hosts. Upstream MinIO Object Store and AIStor have different product/licensing models, so verify documentation for the exact product and version. Single-node setups are not equivalent to production HA.
Applications use the S3 API for bucket/object operations while the cluster distributes data across erasure sets and disks. Load balancers and TLS standardize access.
Parity blocks consume capacity to provide fault tolerance. The parity level balances usable capacity against failure tolerance.
Separate IAM policies and credentials for apps, backups and administrators reduce blast radius.
Avoid exposing credentials in shell history; use safe secret handling.

No. MinIO/AIStor provides S3-compatible object storage; AWS S3 is a separate managed cloud service.
No. Both can provide fault tolerance, but object-level erasure coding and traditional RAID are different architectures.
It can for testing or limited use, but it is not equivalent to a production HA cluster.
Share total data, daily growth, object size, retention and HA needs; we can distinguish test single-node from cluster architecture.
