+## Create cascading read replicas
 
-Cascading read replicas can help distribute read workloads, reducing the load on the primary server. Deploying read replicas in different regions (cross-region read replicas) can help distribute read traffic closer to users in various geographies. You can add cascading read replicas to Azure Database for PostgreSQL flexible server instance, this feature is supported in public preview capacity. This allows you to create new read replicas on top of an existing read replica, with the existing read replica acting as the source for the next level. 
+Cascading read replicas can help distribute read workloads, reducing the load on the primary server. Deploying read replicas in different regions (cross-region read replicas) can help distribute read traffic closer to users in various geographies. You can add cascading read replicas to Azure Database for PostgreSQL server. This allows you to create new read replicas on top of an existing read replica, with the existing read replica acting as the source for the next level. 
 
 The first-level read replica asynchronously replicates data from the primary server. A second-level read replica can then be created using the first-level replica as its source, forming a two-tier replication hierarchy. This architecture increases scalability, supporting up to 30 read replica servers with the primary server allowing up to 5 read replicas, and each of those replicas supporting 5 additional replicas. To add a cascading read replica to Azure Database for PostgreSQL flexible server instance, select the existing read replica (created from the primary server), and navigate to the 'Replication' tab and click 'Create replica'.
 
 For example, your primary server can have up to 5 read replicas (level 1). One of these, say read-replica-1, can act as the source for another replica read-replica-2 which becomes part of (level 2).
