One or more techniques and/or computing devices are provided for data synchronization. For example, an in-flight log may be maintained to track storage operations that are received by a first storage node, but have not been committed to both first storage of the first storage node and second storage of a second storage node that has a replication relationship, such as a disaster recovery relationship, with the first storage node. A dirty region log may be maintained to track regions within the first storage that have been modified by storage operations that have not been replicated to the second storage. Accordingly, a catchup synchronization phase (e.g., asynchronous replication by a resync scanner) may be performed to replicate storage operations (e.g., replicate data within dirty regions of the first storage that were modified by such storage operations) to the second storage until the first storage and the second storage are synchronized.
