Did you install via a package or tarball binaries? Packages allow you to run cassandra as a service with sudo service cassandra <start|stop>
But if you are running via tarballs, then yes, running a kill command against Cassandra is the way to do it since Cassandra runs in crash-only mode. Kill <pid> would work however.
