CCSP Exam - Question 333


BCDR strategies typically do not involve the entire operations of an organization, but only those deemed critical to their business.

Which concept pertains to the amount of data and services needed to reach the predetermined level of operations?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

The recovery point objective (RPO) defines the amount of data an organization must have available or accessible to reach the predetermined level of operations necessary during a business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR) situation. It focuses on the maximum tolerable period in which data might be lost due to a major incident. It determines how much data must be restored to continue operations. Other options, such as recovery service level (RSL), relate to the percentage of service levels restored, and recovery time objective (RTO) pertains to the duration needed to restore operations. SRE is generally unrelated to BCDR contexts.

RPO for data and RSL percent of services.

RPO is about data only, not about the amount of services...

RPO is the amount of data needed to recover to operate an acceptable level, the question specifically asks about services as well which makes me think that RSL is the correct choice here.

There’s a pretty similar question elsewhere which gives RSL as the correct answer!

It is kind of a tricky question because they mention both data and services. RPO refers to amount of data and RSL to percentage of services. Since the question specifies "amount", I think it is RPO.

answer is RPO, as key point is amount of data services is a distractor its not rsl, as rsl is the level of services required to meet rto

The answer is RSL. RPO is a measure of time, how much data can you as a company afford to lose. RSL is a percentage measure (0-100%) of how much computing horse power based upon a percentage of the production system that you will need during a disaster.

Recovery Point Objective is the amount of data LOSS that's acceptable. 4 hr RPO means I can lose 4 hours of transactions. It does not define how much data needs to be restored before I'm functional, that's RSL.
