+              specified number of replicas per store and keep them up to date as long as there are enough instances running.
               Standby replicas are used to minimize the latency of task failover.  A task that was previously running on a failed instance is
               preferred to restart on an instance that has standby replicas so that the local state store restoration process from its
               changelog can be minimized.  Details about how Kafka Streams makes use of the standby replicas to minimize the cost of
               resuming tasks on failover can be found in the <a class="reference internal" href="../architecture.html#streams_architecture_state"><span class="std std-ref">State</span></a> section.</div></blockquote>
