To start working with Cassandra, let's start the Cassandra Query Language (CQL) shell . The shell interface will allow us to execute CQL commands to define, query, and modify our data. As this is a new cluster and we have turned on authentication and authorization, we will use the default cassandra and cassandra username and password, as follows:
bin/cqlsh 192.168.0.101 -u cassandra -p cassandraConnected to PermanentWaves at 192.168.0.101:9042.[cqlsh 5.0.1 | Cassandra 3.11.2 | CQL spec 3.4.4 | Native protocol v4]Use HELP for help.cassandra@cqlsh>
First, let's tighten up security. Let's start by creating a new superuser to work with.
New users can only be created if authentication and authorization are properly set ...
