[jira] [Created] (FLUME-1843) FlumeEventAvroEventSerializer does not work with Hive

Brock Noland created FLUME-1843:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: FlumeEventAvroEventSerializer does not work with Hive
                 Key: FLUME-1843
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-1843
             Project: Flume
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Brock Noland
            Priority: Minor


A common question is how to use data serialized by FlumeEventAvroEventSerializer in Hive/Pig. The root issue, at least with hive, is that the payload is serialized as a byte array. Since it's quite common for users to use strings, perhaps we should have an alternative to FlumeEventAvroEventSerializer that stores the body as a string.
