Hi Jens – I put together a couple of simple scripts a couple of years ago that might do exactly what you need. These leverage nodetool snapshot and sstableloader to create keyspace snapshots, collect up all the necessary SSTable files in an easy-to-move file, rename the keyspace, restore it to the same or a different cluster, etc. Might be useful… https://github.com/AppliedInfrastructure/cassandra-snapshot-tools

Let's say a developer makes a mistake and corrupts the table. Is there an easy way for me to restore a replica, say "users_20161102", of the original table for the developer to looks at the old copy?
