None of the above. With Cassandra, you need to store the data you want to retrieve, so your "import" is really an operation where you extract the data you have in your MySQL database, synthesize new data to be stored in Cassandra, and push that data into Cassandra using the client of your choice. You need to go through the exercise of deciding what you want to retrieve, how to lay that out in a cluster, and then mapping your existing data onto that new model. -- Paul
