Abstract
In this chapter, we talk about the purpose of replicating data or databases and why we need high availability. Some cloud vendors provide replication for the disks of virtual machines or databases and some do not. Similarly, some vendors provide high availability of servers and database instances by default and some do not. We talk about replication and high availability for every cloud vendor in detail.
