Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between RTO and RPO?
- RTO (Recovery Time Objective) is how quickly you need to recover — the maximum acceptable downtime after an incident. RPO (Recovery Point Objective) is how much data loss you can accept — the maximum age of the data you can restore from. Defining both is the first step in designing a DR architecture, because they directly determine the infrastructure investment required.
- How often should we test our disaster recovery plan?
- At minimum, once per year. For regulated industries (healthcare, fintech), quarterly DR drills are recommended. Many compliance frameworks including SOC 2 and ISO 27001 require documented evidence that DR plans have been tested and validated. We build testing schedules and DR runbooks as part of every engagement.
- What is the difference between a backup strategy and a disaster recovery plan?
- A backup strategy focuses on copying and retaining data. A disaster recovery plan covers the full process of restoring business operations after a failure — including not just data, but infrastructure, applications, DNS, access controls, and team communication. DR includes backups, but a backup strategy alone is not a DR plan.
