Devaraj Das commented on HBASE-14417:
-------------------------------------
The question is should we do this first or HBASE-14141 first. We need both in
reality. We could put in a short term solution for backing up bulk-loaded data
but wondering if we should bite the bullet and do HBASE-14141 and then this.

> Key: HBASE-14417
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-14417
> Project: HBase
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Reporter: Vladimir Rodionov
> Assignee: Vladimir Rodionov
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: backup
> Fix For: 2.0.0
>
>
> Currently, incremental backup is based on WAL files. Bulk data loading
> bypasses WALs for obvious reasons, breaking incremental backups. The only way
> to continue backups after bulk loading is to create new full backup of a
> table. This may not be feasible for customers who do bulk loading regularly
> (say, every day).
