## Overview

Replication relies on immutability provided by versioning to sync objects between the configured source and replication target. Replication results in the object data, metadata, last modification time and version ID all being identical between the source and target. Thus version ordering is automatically guaranteed on the source and target clusters.

### Replication of object version and metadata
