What are the different types of backup

[Clara Smith]

There are four types of backups:
1. Full backup.
2. Differential backup.
3. Incremental backup.
4. Mirror backup

A backup, also known as a data backup, is a copy of computer data that is captured and stored somewhere so that it can be used to restore the original in the event of a data loss incident.

Backups are classified into three types: full, differential, and incremental.

When a full backup is created, a complete copy of all files and folders is created. This is the most time-consuming backup method and may put a strain on your network if the backup is taking place on the network.

Incremental backups take up less space and time than differential and full backups, but they are the most time-consuming method of restoring a full system.

Differential backups are a compromise between performing full backups and incremental backups regularly. Incremental backups necessitate one full backup. Following that, only the files that have changed since the previous full backup are backed up. This means that you only need the most recent full backup set and the most recent differential backup set to restore.
