can I set a MAX Limit to a BIGINT cassandra's data type?

Question

can I set a MAX Limit to a BIGINT cassandra data type? this is my first step in cassandra db. for example: bigint(10) just like in mysql?

MySQL's bigint (10) has no restrictions on the size of the numbers. It's the same as bigint, 8-byte integers. — ypercubeᵀᴹ, Jan 14, 2017 at 12:22

No. A Bigint is just a 64-bit signed long. No size or space limits can be specified. https://cassandra.apache.org/doc/latest/cql/types.html

Theirs docs have DECIMAL as a type option. Could this be used, for example with DECIMAL(8,0)? Or I am totally off?

And also: does Cassandra have CHECK constraints?
