Azure NetApp Files supports [snapshots](../azure-netapp-files/azure-netapp-files-manage-snapshots.md) of datastores for quick checkpoints for near term recovery or quick clones. ANF backup lets you offload your Azure NetApp Files snapshots to Azure storage. Only for this technology are copies and stores-changed blocks relative to previously offloaded snapshots in an efficient format. This ability decreases Recovery Point Objective (RPO) and Recovery Time Objective (RTO) while lowering backup data transfer burden on the Azure VMware Solution service.
