Replication is a crucial feature of our Object Storage Service (OSS) that ensures data durability and high availability. This guide provides an overview of replication options and configurations available for your OSS buckets.

Replication Types

Standard Replication

Standard replication provides asynchronous replication across regions, ensuring your data is safe and accessible even if the primary region becomes unavailable.

  • Benefits:
    • Data durability: Replicated data is stored in multiple regions, reducing the risk of data loss.
    • High availability: Access to your data is not affected by region outages.

Enhanced Replication

Enhanced replication offers synchronous replication, providing even higher data durability and consistency.

  • Benefits:
    • Synchronous data replication: Ensures data consistency across regions.
    • Reduced risk of data loss: Immediate replication across regions minimizes the impact of regional outages.

Configuring Replication

To configure replication for your OSS bucket, follow these steps:

  1. Sign in to the OSS console.
  2. Select the bucket you want to configure replication for.
  3. Go to the "Properties" tab.
  4. Click on "Replication" and then "Create Rule".
  5. Select the replication type (Standard or Enhanced).
  6. Configure the replication settings, including the target region and replication rules.
  7. Save the configuration.
