Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

Transaction Log Backups every 10 minutes

An RPO of 15 minutes implies that the maximum amount of data loss acceptable is 15 minutes. Therefore, transaction log backups must occur at least every 15 minutes.

Answer analysis

Option-by-option breakdown

For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.

  • Transaction Log Backups every 10 minutes

    Why this is correct

    Backing up every 10 minutes ensures the data loss is limited to 10 minutes, satisfying the 15-minute RPO.

  • Daily Full Backups

    Why it's wrong here

    This would result in a 24-hour RPO.

  • Weekly Full and Daily Differential Backups

    Why it's wrong here

    This would result in a 24-hour RPO.

  • Hourly Transaction Log Backups

    Why it's wrong here

    This would result in a 60-minute RPO.
