Please add a paragraph informing the user what the article introduces and what they can learn here.
Below, please add section title "About MySQL remote replicas" or similar.

The goal of the remote replica is to provide a read-only instance of your managed MySQL service in another geographically diverse region.

This works as an extra measure to protect your data from the unlikely event that a whole region would go down. It can also improve performance if a read replica is placed closer to your end-users that read from the database.
