Can you explain me recovery point objective?? With some other example? Other than the one mentioned in ur site

 

Answer:

The RPO (Recovery Point Objective) is the maximum targeted period in which data might be lost from a IT service due to a major incident. I will give you an easy example: You have a policy which establishes that backups are performed each day at 15:00pm. So, your backups are every 24 hours. You perform the first day of the week (Monday) a backup. The next backup is Tuesday at 15:00pm, but you have a problem Monday at 18:00pm, and all information generated after the first backup until 18:00pm is lost (3 hours). The question is, Can you lose 3 hours of information? And 24 hours? If you can lose only 3 hours, your RPO will be 3 hours. 
Finally, I am not sure what page have you seen in our site, but these are interesting articles related to RPO:
