Hi Rajath,
Thank you for your reply.
But I'm not sure why the not compacted SSTables takes longer repair time.
Could you explain the reason more detail?
I guess that SSTables which backed up in backups directory will be never
repaired so that It must exchange merkle tree and update actual data t
Hi Satoshi,
Incremental Backup if set to True, copies SSTables to the backup folder as
soon as a SSTable is flushed to disk. Hence these backed up SSTables miss
out on the opportunity to go through compaction. Does that explain the
longer time ?

Hi Prasenjit
Thank you for your reply.
However, I doubt that incremental backup can reduce RTO. I think the
demerit of incremental backup is to take longer repair time rather than
without incremental backup.
Because I've compared the repair time of two cases like below.
(a) snapshot(10GB, full
Hi Satoshi
You are correct that incremental backups offer you the opportunity to
reduce the amount of data you need to transfer offsite. On the recovery
path, you need to piece together the full backup and subsequent incremental
backups.
However, where incremental backups help is with respect to
Hi,
I want to know the actual advantage of using incremental backup.
I've read through the DataStax document and it says the merit of using
incremental backup is as follows:
- It allows storing backups offsite without transferring entire snapshots
- With incremental backups and snapshots, it can
