"Language-native encoding is not cross-platform or efficient. JSON and XML are text encoding. Thrift, protobuf, and Avro are binary encoding using a schema. Thrift and protobuf encode field tags and thus don't need a schema registry. Not true for Avro. This allows Avro to data-based schemas instead of hard-coded schema s. Code generation is good for Java, bad for Python." — Oct 10, 2021 09:25PM
