                 Key: CASSANDRA-980
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-980
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 0.6
            Reporter: Tupshin Harper
             Fix For: 0.7


It is not currently possible to delete a range of columns without retrieving 
the range through the thrift interface and then deleting the columns by name. 
An efficient implementation of this is dependent on 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-674, but it can at least be 
accomplished server-side in the current implementation so as to avoid the 
overhead of the client-side communication. I'm going to attach one proposed 
implementation that adds a remove_range_slices api method for parallelism with 
get_range_slices, but i'm not wedded to either the implementation nor the 
particular api.
