What is asynchronous replication?

[Yosmar]

I want to understand the differences between synchronous and asynchronous replication.

Asynchronous replication is a data storage backup technique where data is not immediately backed up during or immediately after the primary storage acknowledges write complete, but rather done over a period of time. This method results in a system with good performance and lesser bandwidth requirement, but the backups are not immediately available if something happens to the primary storage.
