What is the difference between CQRS and regular replication from primary db to read db ?

[Raul Junco]

They follow the same principle: separate read and write operations. But:

- CQRS allows for different data models; Replication typically maintains the same data model.

- CQRS May use event-driven updates to synchronize data; Replication

synchronizes at the level of the DB.

- I feel CQRS can get way more complex

Thoughts?
