A company has a DR plan with an RTO of 2 hours and an RPO of 30 minutes. They perform a simulation test. The test shows that restoring the database from the latest backup takes 3 hours, and the backup is 45 minutes old. What is the most appropriate action?

Do nothing, because the test was a simulation

Implement a faster restore method, such as disk-based backups or replication

What does Recovery Point Objective (RPO) measure?

The maximum acceptable amount of data loss measured in time

The maximum acceptable downtime

What is the primary benefit of Continuous Data Protection (CDP)?

It eliminates the need for a disaster recovery plan

It minimizes data loss by capturing every change in real time

It speeds up the recovery process

It reduces the need for backups

An e-commerce company runs its database in a primary data center. The DR plan requires an RPO of 0 (no data loss) and an RTO of under 1 minute. Which replication strategy should the company implement?

Asynchronous replication with a 5-minute lag

Synchronous replication to a standby site

Periodic log shipping every 30 minutes
