What Does Object Level Recovery Mean?
Object level recovery is a method of restoring individual database objects from a backup rather than the whole database. This is a feature of third-party products that makes restoring backups from relational databases much faster and easier than restoring a whole database in case some parts are accidentally deleted or corrupted.
Techopedia Explains Object Level Recovery
When part of a database is accidentally deleted or modified, usually the only thing that administrators can do is hope the wanted data was saved on a recent backup. With very large databases, restoring a few entries in a table from a backup can be an expensive proposition, in both storage space and time. An administrator needs enough disk space to unpack the backup and enough time to sift through it looking for the records that need to be copied over into the main database.
