    1. point-in-time recovery

      According to Anthropic's Claude LLM:

      Point-in-time recovery refers to the ability to restore a database or system to a specific moment in the past. This feature allows administrators to recover data to a precise point before a failure, corruption, or unintended change occurred.

      Key aspects of point-in-time recovery include:

      1. Continuous backups: The system regularly captures changes to data.
      2. Granular restoration: Allows recovery to any specific time within the backup window.
      3. Minimal data loss: Helps reduce the amount of data lost between backups.
      4. Flexibility: Useful for various scenarios like correcting human errors or recovering from cyberattacks.

      This capability is especially valuable in database management systems and cloud storage solutions, providing a safety net for data integrity and business continuity.
