RPO & RTO

  • RPO stands for Recovery Point Objective
  • How often backup being taken
  • When disaster happen, time between RPO and Disaster is a Data Loss
  • If we take backups more frequently
    • Data Loss will be minimized
    • In this case, it become expensive also
  • RTO stands for Recovery Time Objective
  • RTO is the time to recover from the Disaster
  • When Disaster happen, time between Disaster and Time to Make Application Online is the Downtime
  • The Lower Time the RPO and RTO, the better the application, also become expensive
