Recovery Point Objective (RPO) refers to the maximum tolerable period in which data might be lost from an IT service due to a major incident. It is a critical parameter in disaster recovery and business continuity planning. RPO is determined based on the acceptable data loss in case of a disruption of operations. It indicates the point in time to which data must be recovered after an outage to resume business operations and avoid unacceptable consequences associated with a break in business continuity.
