  Which of the following backup types copies changed data from a server and then combines the backups on the backup target?

  A. Differential

  B. Incremental

  C. Synthetic full

  D. Snapshot

  Correct Answer: C

  This is a type of backup that copies changed data from a server and then combines the backups on the backup target. A synthetic full backup is a backup type that creates a full backup from an existing full backup and subsequent incremental backups. A synthetic full backup does not require accessing the source data again, but only the backup data that is already stored on the backup target. A synthetic full backup offers the benefits of reducing the backup window, network traffic, and storage space while providing faster and easier recovery than incremental backups.
