--------------------------------------
Summary: Support microseconds precision for Timestamps
Key: KAFKA-10561
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-10561
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: KafkaConnect
Reporter: Daniel Petisme
Kafka connect model Timestamp logical type has a milliseconds precision where
AVRO provide both milli and micro seconds precision (for both Time and
Timestamp).
I faced the issue when using Qlik Replicate (former Attunity) Change Data
Capture (CDC)tool. The CDC serializes timestamp with a microseconds precision
and provide the official `timestamp-micros` logical type.
Due to the lack of support, SMTs like TimestampConverter fallback to a Long
representation (since internally the `timestamp-micros`) does not exists and
the conversion to java.utilDate is wrong.
I can't check myself but I heard that IBM CDC was also using `timestamp-micros`.
