 ## Data replication
 
-Azure HDInsight does not store customer data. The primary means of storage for a cluster are its associated storage accounts. You can attach your cluster to an existing storage account, or create a new storage account during the cluster creation process. If a new account is created, it will be created as a locally redundant storage (LRS) account, and will satisfy in-region data residency requirements including those specified in the [Trust Center](https://azuredatacentermap.azurewebsites.net).

 You can validate that HDInsight is properly configured to store data in a single region by ensuring that the storage account associated with your HDInsight is LRS or another storage option mentioned on [Trust Center](https://azuredatacentermap.azurewebsites.net).
