Types of Backup

Full backups

A full backup is the most basic of all backup types. And as its name suggests, it’s also the most comprehensive. In a full data or system backup, all data is copied to another location.

Incremental backups

This type only backs up the information that has changed since the last backup occurred. 

Differential backups

Similar to incremental backup, a differential backup copies all data changed since the last full backup every time it is run.

Backup Media

Optical – High Retention

Disk Drive (SSD, FLASH or Spinning)

Tape

Online – Service or Generic

Device – NAS, Datto
