In SQL Server, the recovery model is a very important concept or we can say, it is a configuration setting in which the system defines how the transaction log is used to recover the database at the time of any issue in the database.
SQL server has three recovery models for databases:
i) Simple,
ii) Full and
iii) Bulk-logged.
Every recovery model has advantages and disadvantages.
To decide on the recovery model of any new database, we need to consider specific requirements and needs for the application.
