2. Incremental backup - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incremental_backup

   A synthetic backup is an alternative method of creating full backups. Instead of reading and backing up data directly from the disk, it will synthesize the data from the previous full backup (either a regular full backup for the first backup, or the previous synthetic full backup) and the periodic incremental backups.

3. Differential backup - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_backup

   A differential backup is a type of data backup that preserves data, saving only the difference in the data since the last full backup.The rationale in this is that, since changes to data are generally few compared to the entire amount of data in the data repository, the amount of time required to complete the backup will be smaller than if a full backup was performed every time that the ...

4. Backup - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backup

   A reverse incremental backup method starts with a non-image full backup. After the full backup is performed, the system periodically synchronizes the full backup with the live copy, while storing the data necessary to reconstruct older versions. This can either be done using hard links—as Apple Time Machine does, or using binary diffs.

5. Glossary of backup terms - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_backup_terms

   Site-to-site backup. backup, over the internet, to an offsite location under the user's control. Similar to remote backup except that the owner of the data maintains control of the storage location. Synthetic backup. a restorable backup image that is synthesized on the backup server from a previous full backup and all the incremental backups ...

6. Continuous data protection - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_data_protection

   Traditional incremental and differential backups make copies of entire files; however starting around 2013 enterprise client-server backup applications have implemented a capability for block-level incremental backup, designed for large files such as databases.

7. Backup software - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backup_software

   Backup solutions generally support differential backups and incremental backups in addition to full backups, so only material that is newer or changed compared to the backed up data is actually backed up. The effect of these is to increase significantly the speed of the backup process over slow networks while decreasing space requirements.

8. Backup rotation scheme - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backup_rotation_scheme

   Grandfather-father-son backup (GFS) is a common rotation scheme for backup media, [1] in which there are three or more backup cycles, such as daily, weekly and monthly. The daily backups are rotated on a 3-months basis using a FIFO system as above. The weekly backups are similarly rotated on a bi-yearly basis, and the monthly backup on a yearly ...

9. Acronis True Image - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acronis_True_Image

   Full: Creates a new backup archive every time and backs up everything specified by the user. Differential: Backups only backup the changes made since the latest full backup. Incremental: Only backs up the changes made since the last incremental backup. Incremental backups are a chain and loss of any one of the incremental backups renders the ...
