Jesse Yates commented on PHOENIX-1241:
--------------------------------------
Yeah, byte[] was nice in a general sense, but most ppl want to store strings so
we definitely saw cases where deserialization of the byte[] led to a garbled
tag/annotation :-/
Here you could "cheat" and just say that, for instance if the byte[] is
prefixed by 0x00,0x00 the next info is the type info, followed up the info;
otherwise, the byte[] is just stored as a string. Or something like that.

> Project: Phoenix
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Affects Versions: 5.0.0, 4.1.1
> Reporter: Jesse Yates
> Fix For: 5.0.0, 4.1.1

>
> Currently traces only support storing string valued annotations - this works
> for known trace sources. However, phoenix will have trace annotations with
> specific types. We can improve the storage format to know about these custom
> types, rather than just storing strings, making the query interface more
> powerful.
