[jira] [Comment Edited] (HBASE-14135) HBase Backup/Restore Phase 3: Merge backup images

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-14135?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15510810#comment-15510810 ]

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Two issues with incremental backup implementation:

# Storage usage. WAL files are significantly larger than hfiles, especially when compression is enabled in hfiles
# Restore operation time. 

The most significant is the first one. We can that storage reduction factor will be something between 3-5 once convert (merge) is implemented.

Running conversion (merge) on a remote destination (cluster) is not feasible in many cases, so merge will require reading/writing data back and forth between source and destination.

I will postpone this feature until filtering at the source during incremental backup is done (HBASE-14141).
