Recovery point
A recovery point is a single, self-consistent copy of a system taken at one moment, holding everything needed to bring that system back.
The term matters because backups are often scattered: a database dump in one place, uploaded files in another, configuration in a third. Restoring from those separately means reconciling three different moments in time.
A ReviveDB recovery point groups the PostgreSQL database and Auth data, Storage object bytes, Edge Function bundles and supported project configuration from one run, so a restore starts from one coherent set rather than an assembly job.
