Thanks @abhishekagarwal87. I like that implementation when all the schemas
are known in advance. The use case I've been writing this for needs to support
arbitrary schema evolution over the life of the topology, so I have not thought
about it from that perspective.
As to the default, I think the safest option is the one that doesn't
require the user to do anything, but I would be interested in hearing other
opinions on that as well.
Thanks for the feedback everyone, I hope to have some code added to this PR
soon.
> AvroGenericRecordBolt will not work in a topology with multiple workers

> Priority: Critical
>
> It receives Avro GenericRecord objects, which leads to serialization errors
> in a multi-worker topology. Specifically, GenericData.Record will throw a
> serialization error.
> A serializer for this class should be added and registered.
