[jira] [Created] (AVRO-2076) Combine already serialized Avro records to an Avro file

Erik van Oosten created AVRO-2076:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: Combine already serialized Avro records to an Avro file
                 Key: AVRO-2076
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-2076
             Project: Avro
          Issue Type: Wish
            Reporter: Erik van Oosten


In some use cases Avro events arrive already serialized (e.g. when listening to a Kafka topic). It would be great if there would an API that allows writing an Avro file without the need for deserializing and serializing these Avro records.

Providing such an API allows for very efficient creation of Avro files: given that these Avro records are written with the same schema, an Avro file would write will the exact same bytes anyway (before block compression).
