Backup and Recovery Q007

How will minimising recovery time affect the business?

a. It reduces the need to regularly update the backup and recovery strategy.
b. It reduces the cost of downtime.
c. It reduces the amount of downtime.
d. It helps to prevent failures from occurring.

Answer B: A reduction in recovery time will shorten total downtime and thus reduce the costs associated with downtime. Answer a is incorrect because minimising recovery time does not affect how often the backup and recovery strategy is updated. Answer c is incorrect because the amount of data loss depends on the availability of valid backups. Answer d is incorrect because appropriate database configuration and not minimisation of recovery time prevents failures from occuring.
