Josh Elser commented on PHOENIX-5443:
-------------------------------------

If you're thinking about hooking this up to other systems, I suspect you're 
planning on making some API and providing some utility which can read that API 
and serialize the object to Avro?

(if not, could I make levy the request to try to keep serialization libraries 
out of external-facing API ;))

> Based on an object name (such as a table or view) and an optional tenant_id 
> and timestamp, we should be able to construct all the explicitly defined 
> columns and data types of an object. (Obviously, we can't do this for dynamic 
> columns.)
> From these fields, we should be able to construct a schema for the object and 
> return it to the user. While this JIRA will focus on Avro, the output format 
> should be pluggable so that other implementations could output to Thrift or 
> Protobuf, and PHOENIX-4286 could use it to output as SQL CREATE statements.
