Full Load is the entire data dump load taking place the very first time. Gradually to synchronize the target data with source data, there are further 2 techniques:- Refresh load - Where the existing data is truncated and reloaded completely. Incremental - Where delta or difference between target and source data is dumped at regular intervals. Timsetamp for previous delta load has to be maintained.

RE: What is Full load & Incremental or Refresh load?
By Full Load or One-time load we mean that all the data in the Source table(s) should be processed. This contains historical data usually. Once the historical data is loaded we keep on doing incremental loads to process the data that came after one-time load.
