Odoo keeps 14 full backups for up to 3 months: 1/day for 7 days, 1/week for 4 weeks, and 1/month for 3 months. Backups are replicated on at least three different machines in different data centers. Users can download manual backups of their live data at any time.
For a permanent disaster impacting one server only, Odoo has Disaster Recovery Plan, which has the following metrics:
- Recovery Point Objective: 5 minutes, that is, losing a maximum of 5 minutes of work
- Recovery Time Objective: 30 minutes, that is, the service will be back online after a maximum of 30 minutes, standby promotion time and DNS propagation time included
For data center disasters where one entire data center is completely and permanently down, Disaster Recovery Plan has these metrics:
- Recovery Point Objective: 24 hours, that is, you can lose a maximum of 24 hours of work if the data cannot be recovered and you need to restore the last daily backup
- Recovery Time Objective: 24 hours, that is, the service will be restored from the backup within 24 hours in a different data center.
