Recovery Time Objective (RTO) refers to the maximum amount of time that is allowed to elapse
before the recovery of application processing is completed after a disaster or failure occurs. This
metric is crucial for business continuity planning as it defines the acceptable downtime that the
business can tolerate before the system is back online and fully functional.
For example, if an RTO is set to 2 hours, the business must ensure that the affected systems are
restored and operational within that timeframe.
