Ufuk Celebi commented on FLINK-5824:
------------------------------------

[~dawidwys] I've just assigned it to you.

[~StephanEwen] [~stefanrichte...@gmail.com] Stephan mentioned that this also 
affects savepoints. Do we want to do something special there or simply fix it 
(possibly breaking savepoints)?

> In a couple of places we convert Strings to bytes and bytes back to Strings 
> without explicitly specifying an encoding. This can lead to problems when 
> client and server default encodings differ.
> The task of this JIRA is to go over the whole project and look for 
> conversions where we don't specify an encoding and fix it to specify UTF-8 
> explicitly.
> For starters, we can {{grep -R 'getBytes()' .}}, which already reveals many 
> problematic places.
