             Summary: Support microseconds precision for Timestamps
                 Key: KAFKA-10561
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-10561
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: KafkaConnect
            Reporter: Daniel Petisme


Kafka connect model Timestamp logical type has a milliseconds precision where 
AVRO provide both milli and micro seconds precision (for both Time and 
Timestamp).

 

I faced the issue when using Qlik Replicate (former Attunity) Change Data 
Capture (CDC)tool. The CDC serializes timestamp with a microseconds precision 
and provide the official `timestamp-micros` logical type.

Due to the lack of support, SMTs like TimestampConverter fallback to a Long 
representation (since internally the `timestamp-micros`) does not exists and 
the conversion to java.utilDate is wrong.

I can't check myself but I heard that IBM CDC was also using `timestamp-micros`.
