 ## How object replication works
 
 Object replication asynchronously copies a specified set of block blobs from a container in one storage account to a container in another account. Object replication happens asynchronously and is [eventually consistent](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eventual_consistency). After you configure object replication on the source account, Azure Storage checks the change feed every minute(???) and replicates any write or delete operations to the destination account. Replication latency depends on the size of the block blob being replicated.

 Object replication requires that the following Azure Storage features are enabled:
 
-- [Change feed (preview)](storage-blob-change-feed.md)
-- [Blob versioning (preview)](versioning-overview.md)
+Before you configure object replication, enable its prerequisites. Change feed must be enabled on the source account, and blob versioning must be enabled on both the source and destination account. For more information about enabling these features, see these articles:
