Cassandra does not differentiate between null and empty, so when reading
from C* all empty values are reported as null. To avoid inserting nulls
(avoiding tombstones) see

https://github.com/datastax/spark-cassandra-connector/blob/master/doc/5_saving.md#globally-treating-all-nulls-as-unset

This will not prevent those columns from being read as null though, it will
only skip writing tombstones.
