Disaster recovery (RPO and RTO)

also DR, RPO, RTO, backup and restore

Getting the service back after losing a region or a datastore. RPO is how much data you can afford to lose, RTO is how long you can be down.

You have done this if

You restored the vector index from a nightly snapshot and re-ran ingestion for the gap.

Say it in a review

Our RPO for the index is 24 hours because we can rebuild from source; RTO is about two hours.
