In this lesson
turn business impact into RPO and RTO per capability.
Planned topics
- Availability is the share of time a capability works; recovery objectives describe the worst acceptable outage.
- RTO: how long until service is back; RPO: how much recent data may be lost.
- Each capability gets its own targets; checkout matters more than the marketing page.
- Cost grows steeply as targets tighten; the business sponsor chooses, the architect prices and explains.
- Base targets on impact: lost sales per hour, legal exposure, reputation.
