Andrea,

I am not certain that Cassandra will work for a Jena graph store because of
the requirement for the primary key column.  But...

The easiest mechanism for extension is to extend GraphBase.  As the
documentation states:

GraphBase is an implementation of Graph that provides some convenient base
functionality for Graph implementations.

Subtypes of GraphBase must provide performAdd(Triple),
performDelete(Triple), graphBaseFind(TripleMatch,TripleAction), and
graphBaseSize(). GraphBase provides default implementations of the other
methods, including the other finds (on top of that one), a simple-minded
prepare, and contains. GraphBase also handles the event-listening and
registration interfaces.
When a GraphBase is closed, future operations on it may throw an exception.

Once that is working you can override other methods to provide better
performance.
