I think by design, this CassandraStore class should be free from AVRO
related imports since you only implement DataStore<K, T> interface.
AVRO related imports should only be resided in AvroSerializer class.
Native datastax related imports should only be resided in NativeSerializer
class.
That way CassandraStore is decoupled from AVRO related dependencies.
I went through your code this AVRO import has only been used in one
location in persistentSchema class level variable. I think you can easily get
rid of this bit of code change, may be you change
CassandraSerializer.getSerializer() method by passing BeanFactory<K, T>
beanFactory directly rather assigning to class level variable.
I think one this type of design would be start point, one day Gora should
be refactored to support pluggable serializers not just AVRO. WDYT @lewismc
