Another solution is to use multi-level cluster setup, where the top level of `vminsert` nodes [replicate](#replication-and-data-safety) data among the lower level of `vminsert` nodes located at different availability zones. These `vminsert` nodes then spread the data among `vmstorage` nodes in each AZ. See [these docs](#multi-level-cluster-setup) for more details.
Another solution is to use [multi-level cluster setup](#multi-level-cluster-setup).
## Multi-level cluster setup
`vminsert` nodes can accept data from another `vminsert` nodes starting from [v1.60.0](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/CHANGELOG.html#v1600) if `-clusternativeListenAddr` command-line flag is set. For example, if `vminsert` is started with `-clusternativeListenAddr=:8400` command-line flag, then it can accept data from another `vminsert` nodes at TCP port 8400 in the same way as `vmstorage` nodes do. This allows chaining `vminsert` nodes and building multi-level cluster topologies with flexible configs. For example, the top level of `vminsert` nodes can replicate data among the second level of `vminsert` nodes located in distinct availability zones (AZ), while the second-level `vminsert` nodes can spread the data among `vmstorage` nodes located in the same AZ. Such setup guarantees cluster availability if some AZ becomes unavailable. The data from all the `vmstorage` nodes in all the AZs can be read via `vmselect` nodes, which are configured to query all the `vmstorage` nodes in all the availability zones (e.g. all the `vmstorage` addresses are passed via `-storageNode` command-line flag to `vmselect` nodes). Additionally, `-replicationFactor=k+1` must be passed to `vmselect` nodes, where `k` is the lowest number of `vmstorage` nodes in a single AZ. See [replication docs](#replication-and-data-safety) for more details.
Another option is to set up [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html) for replicating the data among multiple VictoriaMetrics clusters. See [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html#multitenancy) for details.
