Vladimir Rodionov commented on HBASE-14417: ------------------------------------------- >> One potential approach is to store hfile information in zookeeper. -1. No Zk, please. > 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: Ted Yu > Priority: Critical > Labels: backup > Fix For: 2.0.0 > > Attachments: 14417.v1.txt, 14417.v2.txt, 14417.v6.txt > > > 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). > Google doc for design: > https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ACCLsecHDvzVSasORgqqRNrloGx4mNYIbvAU7lq5lJE -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
