Myasuka opened a new pull request #7598: [FLINK-11333][protobuf] First-class serializer support for Protobuf types URL: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/7598 ## What is the purpose of the change Support Protobuf types directly in Flink. Unlike the built-in avro serializer of Flink, check whether schema evolvable left to Protobuf itself not checking before any code running currently. This is a known limitation and recorded in [FLINK-11333's comments](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-11333?focusedCommentId=16755185&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#comment-16755185). ## Brief change log - Support to extract `ProtobufTypeInfo` within `TypeExtractor`. - Support to (de)serialize protobuf's message directly without introducing `chill-protobuf` and Kryo. - Support to migrate old savepoint data which serialized by kryo serializer to use current newly `ProtobufSeriazlier` - Also support to build protoc on travis. ## Verifying this change This change added tests and can be verified as follows: - Added unit tests for `ProtobufTypeInfo`, `ProtobufSeriazlier` and `ProtobufSeriazlierSnapshot`. - Extended integration test to verify whether could migrate old savepoint data with kryo serializer to use current newly `ProtobufSeriazlier`. ## Does this pull request potentially affect one of the following parts: - Dependencies (does it add or upgrade a dependency): yes - The public API, i.e., is any changed class annotated with `@Public(Evolving)`: no - The serializers: yes - The runtime per-record code paths (performance sensitive): no, should not. - Anything that affects deployment or recovery: JobManager (and its components), Checkpointing, Yarn/Mesos, ZooKeeper: yes, savepoint data might need to be migarated. - The S3 file system connector: no ## Documentation - Does this pull request introduce a new feature? yes - If yes, how is the feature documented? docs
