Data definition language (DDL) is the set of Cassandra Query Language (CQL) statements that you use to manage data structures in Amazon Keyspaces (for Apache Cassandra), such as keyspaces and tables. You use DDL to create these data structures, modify them after they are created, and remove them when they're no longer in use. Amazon Keyspaces performs DDL operations asynchronously. For more information about how to confirm that an asynchronous operation has completed, see Asynchronous creation and deletion of keyspaces and tables.
The following DDL statements are supported:
