@sijie Thanks for the comment. If I understand correctly, the approach is using the AUTO_CONSUME schema and the PIP-43 to achieve this purpose. Previously, we always use the AUTO_CONSUME schema for a consumer. Essentially, the AUTO_CONSUME schema is a Generic Schema that works with GenericRecord, encode a GenericRecord to byte[] and decode byte[] to GenericRecord. So we don't need to change the existing implementation, we can use the AUTO_CONSUME schema for a producer too to allow the producer able to publish GenericRecord. And with PIP-45, the message carries the real schema. So that we are able to publish GenericRecord with different version schemas. Please point out if I am wrong, thanks. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
