How do I load a large amount of data to DataStax Astra?

I need a way to move a large table to Astra and what should I expect for performance?

You can use the DataStax Bulk Loader (dsbulk) found here at the DataStax Downloads site.

The documentation for DataStax Astra has a pretty good example on how to load data with the DataStax Bulk Loader.

You can also watch this video for a demo and to get an idea for performance:
