aljoscha commented on issue #8583: [FLINK-11820][serialization] SimpleStringSchema handle message record which value is null URL: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/8583#issuecomment-503017371 I wrote this message to the ML: https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/2991b6b3c520380a9172588bc1f6d7e6d632c3d421458a1b44c71c01@%3Cdev.flink.apache.org%3E Regarding this PR and Jira issue, I think it is wrong to return `NULL` values which are then silently dropped by the Kafka consumer. The solution is for users to have their custom schema that can handle null values and encodes them in a custom user type.
