Auto SerDes improvements
94.4 is a small hotfix release following up from last week's 94.3 release.
Kpow's Auto SerDes feature works alongside our data policies feature. Data policies allow you to configure declarative redaction policies against your data. When data policies are configured, any SerDes marked as non-redactable (e.g., String) will be excluded from the list of deserializers Kpow will try to use to infer the topic's data.
94.3 had a bug with this implementation where Auto SerDes detection was failing unless you had configured Kpow with a data policies file. 94.4 fixes this bug.
We have also improved the Auto SerDes inference based on customer feedback. Kpow will attempt to infer String records as the lowest priority. Kpow ensures the inferred data is a valid UTF-8 encoded string when inferring.
