Bryn Cooke created CASSANDRA-10411: -------------------------------------- Summary: Add/drop multiple columns in one ALTER TABLE statement Key: CASSANDRA-10411 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10411 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: New Feature Reporter: Bryn Cooke
Currently it is only possible to add one column at a time in an alter table statement. It would be great if we could add multiple columns at a time. The primary reason for this is that adding each column individually seems to take a significant amount of time (at least on my development machine), I know all the columns I want to add, but don't know them until after the initial table is created. As a secondary consideration it brings CQL slightly closer to SQL where most databases can handle adding multiple columns in one statement. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
