Explanation:
Point-in-time database snapshot
If a past point-in-time copy of mailbox data is requirement for your organization, Exchange provides
the ability to create a lagged copy in DAG environment. This can be useful in the rare event that
there’s a logical corruption that replicates across the databases in the DAG, resulting in a need to
return to a previous point in time. It may also be useful if an administrator accidentally deletes
mailboxes or user data. Recovery from a lagged copy ton be faster than restoring from a backup
because lagged copies don’t require a time-consuming copy process from the backup server to the
Exchange server. This can significantly lower total cost of ownership by reducing end-user downtime.
