             Summary: Stable format for offset log
                 Key: SPARK-17829
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17829
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: SQL
            Reporter: Michael Armbrust


Currently we use java serialization for the WAL that stores the offsets 
contained in each batch.  This has two main issues:
 - It can break across spark releases (though this is not the only thing 
preventing us from upgrading a running query)
 - It is unnecessarily opaque to the user.

I'd propose we require offsets to provide a user readable serialization and use 
that instead.  JSON is probably a good option.
