--------------------------------------
Summary: Add/drop multiple columns in one ALTER TABLE statement
Key: CASSANDRA-10411
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10411
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Bryn Cooke
Currently it is only possible to add one column at a time in an alter table
statement. It would be great if we could add multiple columns at a time.
The primary reason for this is that adding each column individually seems to
take a significant amount of time (at least on my development machine), I know
all the columns I want to add, but don't know them until after the initial
table is created.
As a secondary consideration it brings CQL slightly closer to SQL where most
databases can handle adding multiple columns in one statement.
