      Use systemd to monitor directories and files

        I would say:
        lsyncd for user mode, simple, rsync based solution: https://github.com/axkibe/lsyncd
        csync2 for multi-host synchronization with conflict detection: https://github.com/LINBIT/csync2
        MARS for a kernel side solution (DRBD alternative): http://schoebel.github.io/mars/

          DRBD comes to mind.

          That's the standard.

            Isn't rsync async by design?

            Yes. Rsync can't do full sync, only async. But it's not automatic.

              This is probably the best option.

                Is it for asynchronous replication? I know it is for synchronous.

                    DRBD as the standard asynchronous replication option for Linux

                      DRBD is both sync and async. Most uses of it are async.
