Hi,

>From my understanding, the consolidation job in an always incremental 
backup will need to copy all old data and write it into new (or already 
purged) consolidation volumes. This is great for file-volume based backups 
because copying volumes locally is cheap.

However, for object storage backend, this "copy" means that the 
consolidation job will need to download old volumes first and re-upload new 
volumes to the object storage bucket. This will not only increase network 
transfers but also incurring data retrieval fees.

Therefore, an always incremental backup job may not be suitable for object 
storage back-ends.

Are my understandings  correct!

Best,
Steven Tang
