About Whitepaper

Full, differential, incremental, synthetic full backup types - it’s easy to get lost in the terminology.

In this whitepaper, you'll find an overview of each backup type. We explain:

  • What is full, incremental and differential backup and how it works
  • How incremental backup becomes more efficient with block-level backup enabled
  • How you can speed up data uploads with synthetic full backups

For those who are already familiar with the backup types, there is a decision-making chart that will help you choose the right one.
