Cloud Architecture and Design
Question
Which of the following objectives defines a maximum period in which data might be lost due to a major outage or failure in a cloud environment?
Options
- ARTO
- BRPO
- CMTBF
- DMTTR
Explanation
RPO (Recovery Point Objective) defines the maximum period of data loss an organization can tolerate, measured from the last recoverable data point to the moment of failure.
Common mistakes.
- A. RTO (Recovery Time Objective) defines the maximum acceptable duration of downtime after a failure - how quickly systems must be restored - not how much data may be lost during that period.
- C. MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) is a reliability metric measuring the average operational time between failures and is used for hardware lifecycle planning, not for quantifying acceptable data loss.
- D. MTTR (Mean Time To Repair) measures the average time needed to restore a failed component or system to operation and addresses repair speed, not the boundaries of data loss tolerance.
