Avro 1.10+ introduces local timestamp > logic type (both milliseconds and microseconds), see spec [1]. As TIMESTAMP > currently only supports milliseconds, we can make TIMESTAMP_LTZ support > milliseconds first. > A related work is to support microseconds, and there is already > work-in-progress Jira FLINK-23589 for TIMESTAMP type. We can consolidate the > effort or track that separately for TIMESTAMP_LTZ. > [1] > https://avro.apache.org/docs/1.10.2/spec.html#Local+timestamp+%28millisecond+precision%29 -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
