             Summary: Move away from proto serialization for RocksDB keys in 
Ozone
                 Key: HDDS-3924
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDDS-3924
             Project: Hadoop Distributed Data Store
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Ozone Manager, SCM
            Reporter: Aravindan Vijayan
            Assignee: Aravindan Vijayan
             Fix For: 0.6.0


Currently there are a few places where we rely on protobuf serialization to 
convert the key type to byte array for a RocksDB column family 'key'. However, 
from the proto 
[documentation|https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/encoding#implications]
 it looks like the serialization of proto is unreliable (especially across 
versions). If the byte[] got from proto serialization changes, this will be a 
problem since old keys will be unreadable.

Thanks to [~arp] who helped unearth this problem.
