Question

Accepted Answer

Recovery model in SQL Server determines how transactions are logged and how the database can be restored.

There are three recovery models in SQL Server: Simple, Full, and Bulk-Logged.
Simple recovery model automatically truncates the transaction log and only allows restoring to the most recent full or differential backup.
Full recovery model logs all transactions and allows restoring to a specific point in time using transaction log backups.

The recovery model should be chosen based on the desired level of data protection and the ability to recover from failures.
