Hello,

It seems that Avro fails to serialise POJOs that contain non-String or 
stringable 
keys<https://apache.googlesource.com/avro/+/40650540dcb8ca8a6b6235de5cdd36c0f6e2eb31/lang/java/avro/src/main/java/org/apache/avro/reflect/ReflectData.java#361>.
eg. in the example 
here<https://github.com/senorcarbone/incubator-flink/blob/72b6798b50396c962fc6cea20a2bcdd51eec06f4/flink-examples/flink-java-examples/src/main/java/org/apache/flink/examples/java/testing/LongMapKeyIssueExample.java>
 I get a compiler exception caused by:

org.apache.avro.AvroTypeException: Map key class not String: class 
java.lang.Long

Is there any known workaround/recommendation for this except for using String 
keys?
I need this for a use case of low latency data-intensive streaming so String 
conversions should be avoided.

Paris
