Verifying table properties

In cqlsh, use the DESCRIBE command to view table properties:

DESCRIBE TABLE employee;

This output shows that the table uses DSE In-Memory:

CREATE TABLE employee (
  uid text PRIMARY KEY,
  fname text,
  lname text
) WITH bloom_filter_fp_chance = 0.01
  AND caching = '{"keys":"NONE", "rows_per_partition":"NONE"}'
  AND comment = ''
  AND compaction = {'min_threshold': '4', 'class': 'org.apache.cassandra.db.compaction.MemoryOnlyStrategy',
'max_threshold': '32'}
  AND compression = {}
  AND default_time_to_live = 0
  AND gc_grace_seconds = 864000
  AND max_index_interval = 2048
  AND memtable_flush_period_in_ms = 0
  AND min_index_interval = 128
  AND nodesync = {'enabled' : 'true'}
  AND speculative_retry = '99.0PERCENTILE';
