It's not just set to overnight, it's set to a specific time. The basic setting is 30 minutes before a system goes into hibernate/standby. This can be changed in the power settings of your computer.

∙ 10y agoIt is highly unlikely that a computer enters hibernation mode at random, but it is possible that it does so without express request by the local human user to do so.
This could be caused by malicious or malfunctioning software, which can instruct the computer to enter hibernation mode. Malfunctioning hardware, for example a defective keyboard, could also cause this effect, for example if a corresponding key on a laptop's keyboard is activated without the user's attention. Similarly, laptops are often configured to enter hibernation mode when the lid closes, and the sensor which informs the operating system of the fact that the lid is closed might provide false readings.
The most likely cause for entering hibernation mode on a battery powered computer will be a low battery charge, possibly even more so with a defective or aging battery.

My interviewer asked how you know data is updated or saved in hibernate?
Data is not updated or saved in hibernate. Hibernate is where the contents of main memory and CPU status is saved to a disk file and then the computer is shut down. On the next startup, the boot sequence reloads the CPU and memory state from that file, instead of the normal boot sequence. If a file was loaded in an editor and not saved before hibernate, then it will still be loaded in that editor and not saved after hibernate. As far as updates, since the computer is turned of during hibernate, updates are impossible.
