> Add a new deserialization format that can read Avro binary data from Confluent Schema Registry and convert it into Flink's VARIANT type. The existing avro-confluent format requires a fixed reader schema at table creation time. This format cannot be used if you want to deserialize the records with varying schemas.
> The new format should be able to use the writer schema dynamically per record — enabling schema-agnostic ingestion where the Avro schema varies across records.
> Records are deserialized into VARIANT type column . Fields can later be accessed using VARIANT accessor methods.
