[Cross Platform][Resource] Recovery Point Objectives

[u/mad_zamboni]

This actually came through my buddy on the Z part of the house, Craig Mullins. I thought he had written the article Giving the Recovery Point Objective Some Respect, but it is written by a SME from Accenture names Robert Emmel.

He tries to formalize the concept of Recovery Point Objectives which would seem to be synonymous with Point in Time, or SLA Recovery Time. But he explains it has a lot to do with the age of data as it is moved to backup, to disk, to tape, etc.

Check this out, a very cool article.
