title: How to delete all the records from cassandra table without creating a snapshot
body: <p>I am facing a problem with deleting all the  records from a table.</p>
  
  <p>I can use Truncate table. But truncate would create a snapshot of the data which would be a wastage of storage space in my scenario. </p>
  
  <p>Also truncate would fail if any of the nodes are down. </p>
  
  <p>So I would like to know if there is any way to delete all the records in a table without creating a snapshot that works if a node is down.</p>
