Robin Schumacher commented on CASSANDRA-8234:
---------------------------------------------

Question for clarity: A DBA coming from Oracle, MySQL, etc., wants to do a CTAS 
in C*. Is step 1 "set up Spark node/cluster", followed by step 2, which is 
"write scala routine"?

>
> Continuous request from users is the ability to do CREATE TABLE AS SELECT... 
> The COPY command can be enhanced to perform simple and customized copies of 
> existing tables to satisfy the need. 
> - Simple copy is COPY table a TO new table b.
> - Custom copy can mimic Postgres: (e.g. COPY (SELECT * FROM country WHERE 
> country_name LIKE 'A%') TO …)
