Jeff Hammerbacher commented on HADOOP-6596:
-------------------------------------------

Hey Owen,

Avro doesn't just perform serialization, it also defines an RPC protocol. 
There's currently versioned RPC over HTTP for Java in Avro 1.3. It seems like 
you're hand-coding a portion of the Avro RPC functionality--why not try out 
Avro here? My apologies if I don't understand your particular use case well 
enough to see the drawback.

Thanks,
Jeff
