[Shang Yuanchun (Jira)]

Chesnay Schepler created FLINK-21409:
----------------------------------------

             Summary: Add Avro to DataTypes & Serialization docs
                 Key: FLINK-21409
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-21409
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: API / Type Serialization System, Documentation, Formats (JSON, Avro, Parquet, ORC, SequenceFile)
            Reporter: Chesnay Schepler
             Fix For: 1.13.0


The "Data Types & Serialization" barely mention Avro, which is surprising given how common it is.
Even basic things like how to create a correct TypeInformation for GenericRecords is missing, or special cases like FLINK-21386 which likely just won't work.
