AFS Data Replication

AFS Data Replication is a system that ensures copies of files and data are automatically duplicated across multiple servers or locations. This process helps keep data synchronized and available even if one server fails, enhancing reliability and performance. By regularly updating copies, AFS maintains data consistency across sites, making it easier for users to access files seamlessly regardless of where they are. Think of it as having multiple backup copies stored in different places, so the data is protected and always accessible.
