pankaj mishra commented on CASSANDRA-7311:
------------------------------------------

I think giving option for incremental backup on table level will definitely 
give user more flexibility. But
there are some application, for example when using cassandra with titan graph, 
tables in keyspace are 
depended on each other. They refer other table through ids. In that case it 
does not make sense to have 
incremental backup on table level.

How much users of cassandra has such setup of cassandra is something that, i 
think, will decide whether
this option should be on table level or keyspace level.

If you guys suggest then i can go ahead with creating this option for table 
level as well.

> Currently incremental backups are globally defined, however this is not 
> always appropriate or required for all keyspaces in a cluster. 
> As this is quite expensive, it would be preferred to either specify the 
> keyspaces that need this (or exclude the ones that don't).
