What options are available depends on what version of Cassandra you're
using.
You can specify the row key type with 'key_validation_class'.
For column types, use 'column_validation_classes', which is a dict mapping
column names to types. For example:
sys.create_column_family('mykeyspace', 'users',
column_validation_classes={'username': UTF8Type, 'age': IntegerType})
