Q

What type of backups?

A
  1. Full
  2. Incremental-contains only those files that have been altered since the last full backup.
  3. Differential–A differential backup is a cumulative backup of all changes made since the last full backup, i.e., the differences since the last full backup.

Incremental backups also back up only the changed data, but they only back up the data that has changed since the last backup – be it a full or incremental backup. They are sometimes called “differential incremental backups,” while differential backups are sometimes called “cumulative incremental backups.”
