Apache Avro

Today's episode is about two teams that went looking in completely different corners of the ecosystem and landed on the same answer, push the work to build time.

I have two guests on this podcast, and I invite them both because of articles they have published on FooJ.io. Dmitry Moskalyuk is a new author on FooJ and recently published reflection-free serialization on the JVM for formats in Avro out.

In the article, he explains a model layer that ingests JSON, XML, YAML and TOML and converts it all to Avro, and the choice between Jackson and Kotlin X serialization that came down to exactly where the reflection cost hides and where it doesn't.

Shai Almog has been posting on FooJ since September 2021.

I went back to your first post, Shai, and the counter is now at 140 articles.

So, uh, let's go to the articles.

Dmitry, uh, let's start with, with your, uh, article.

Um, it's about Avro.
