AddReplicationPeer - Amazon OpenSearch Service
Services or capabilities described in AWS documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the AWS European Sovereign Cloud Region, see the AWS European Sovereign Cloud User Guide.

AddReplicationPeer

Starts replicating a domain to a peer domain in another AWS Region. A domain can have one peer. The domain you call becomes the primary and the peer becomes the secondary, which receives a copy of the primary's indexes and serves read requests.

Replication is established asynchronously. Use the DescribeDomainReplication operation to check whether the relationship has reached the ACTIVE state.
