Recovery Point Objective (RPO) and Recovery Time Objective (RTO)

Two critical concepts to measure availability are Recovery Point Objective (RPO) and Recovery Time Objective (RTO). Understanding these two concepts will allow you to choose the best solution for your particular use case, budget, and business requirements.

The concepts of RPO and RTO, in addition to an analysis of the business impact, will provide the foundation to nail down an optimal recommendation for a business continuity plan. The strategy should ensure that normal business operations resume within an acceptable time frame that meets or exceeds the RPO and RTO for the agreed-upon Service Level Agreement (SLA).

These two concepts are the same or similar. The following section will delve into the two concepts to fully understand how they differ.
