Summary: Add SchemaCompatibility check to AvroDeserializer
Key: HIVE-10708
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-10708
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Serializers/Deserializers
Reporter: Swarnim Kulkarni
Assignee: Swarnim Kulkarni
Avro provides a nice API[1] to check if the given reader schema can be used to
deserialize the data given its writer schema. I think it would be super nice to
integrate this into the AvroDeserializer so that we can fail fast and
gracefully if there is a bad schema compatibility
