As per my knowledge in abinitio checkpoints are the intermediate stopping points. These will save information about the recent processed data in the form of *rec files. so whenever there occurs a failure in the graph it will automatically rollbacks to the nearest checkpoint & if you re-run the graph you will re-run the graph from that checkpoint only not from the beginning of the graph which ultimately improves the performance.

As per database point of view, checkpoint is used to flush the data from DB buffer (memory) to the physical disc.
