Backups on flexible servers are snapshot based. The first snapshot backup is scheduled immediately after a server is created. Snapshot backups are currently taken once daily. If none of the databases in the server receive any furhter modifications after the last snapshot backup is taken, snapshots backups are suspended until new modifications are made in any of the databases, point at which a new snapshot is immediately taken. **The first snapshot is a full backup and consecutive snapshots are differential backups.**

The estimated time to recover the server (recovery time objective, or RTO) depends on factors like the size of the database, the last database backup time, and the amount of WAL to process until the last received backup data. The overall recovery time usually takes from a few minutes up to a few hours.

During the geo-restore, the server configurations that can be changed include virtual network settings and the ability to remove geo-redundant backup from the restored server. Changing other server configurations--such as compute, storage, or pricing tier (Burstable, General Purpose, or Memory Optimized)--during geo-restore is not supported.
