Default keyspace

A default keyspace can be defined for each session created off the main connection object. Without this option, each table will need its corresponding keyspace specified with each query. This option is useful for clusters which have only one (non-system) keyspace.

To set this option, the keyspace name can be provided as the session object is created during the cluster's connect method:

session = cluster.connect("keyspace_name");
