> *UPDATE: This ticket is now for the removal of the Avro interface, (see
> http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.db.cassandra.client.devel/36 for
> background).*
> Avro is data serialization and RPC framework similar to Thrift. It provides:
> * Rich data structures.
> * A compact, fast, binary data format.
> * A container file, to store persistent data.
> * Remote procedure call (RPC).
> * Simple integration with dynamic languages. Code generation is not required
> to read or write data files nor to use or implement RPC protocols. Code
> generation as an optional optimization, only worth implementing for
> statically typed languages.
> Cassandra's Avro interface is being structured in a way that closely mirrors
> the existing Thrift interface, both in terms of public facing API, and how it
> is implemented. GSOC students interested in this task should begin by
> familiarizing themselves with Cassandra's Thrift service
> (org.apache.cassandra.thrift).
> Note: This is a very large and long-running task so treat this as a
> meta-issue and add sub-tasks and/or blocking issues as appropriate.
