You can get an "eventually consistent backup" by flushing all nodes and snapshotting; no individual node's backup is guaranteed to be consistent but if you restore from that snapshot then clients will get eventually consistent behavior as usual. Other than that there is no such thing as a "consistent view of the data" in the strict sense, except in the trivial case of writes with CL.ALL. -Jonathan
