Steps for removing tables and keyspaces.

With Cassandra CLI commands you can drop tables and keyspaces in much the same way that tables and databases are dropped in a relational database.

Procedure

Drop the example users table and then drop the demo keyspace.

[default@demo] DROP COLUMN FAMILY users;

[default@demo] DROP KEYSPACE demo;
