Hi Avro experts :) I was searching for an answer in the group already and didn’t find something that I recognized as the answer to this so I apologize if i’m asking something that has been answered frequently.
Let’s say I had a Java library that would send out Avro data over the wire. However, the library would not own the Avro schemas nor know what the schemas were in advance. The library only required that the schemas contain two specific fields that it would then set on the way out - like a string field and a timestamp. What is the best way to model this for Avro? In protobufs this is modeled with a base schema and “extensions” which third parties would use to include their specific fields. Is there a way in Avro to get the same result? Thanks and much appreciated! Matan
