Sample Questions

Question 1

What does Recovery Time Objective (RTO) measure for a workload?

A. The maximum tolerable duration to restore service after an outage
B. The maximum acceptable amount of data loss measured in time
C. The average elapsed time between successive hardware component failures
D. The percentage of requests served without error each month

✓ Correct Answer: A

RTO defines the target time within which service must be restored after disruption. Choice B describes RPO, which measures data loss, not restoration time. Choice C is mean time between failures, a reliability metric. Choice D describes an availability or error-budget metric, not a recovery target.

Question 2

What does Recovery Point Objective (RPO) primarily define?

A. The number of redundant nodes required for a quorum
B. The maximum acceptable amount of data loss measured in time
C. The time needed to fail traffic over to a standby site
D. The uptime percentage promised in a service-level agreement

✓ Correct Answer: B

RPO expresses how much recent data loss is tolerable, typically as a time window such as five minutes. Choice A relates to consensus clustering, not data loss. Choice C describes RTO, the restoration window. Choice D is an SLA uptime figure, which is unrelated to data-loss tolerance.
