Ted Yu commented on HBASE-14417:
--------------------------------
bq. we need ship bulk load only once to backup destination
What about multiple restore destinations ?
I can write up some doc after getting consensus.
> Incremental backup and bulk loading

> 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).
