-------------------------------------

             Summary: Remove protobuf shading from Kinesis connector
                 Key: FLINK-3924
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3924
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: Kinesis Connector, Streaming Connectors
            Reporter: Robert Metzger


The Kinesis connector is currently creating a fat jar with a custom protobuf version (2.6.1), relocated into a different package.

We need to build the fat jar to change the protobuf calls from the original protobuf to the relocated one.

Because Kinesis is licensed under the Amazon Software License (which is not entirely to the ASL2.0), I don't want to deploy kinesis connector binaries to maven central with the releases. These binaries would contain code from Amazon. It would be more than just linking to an (optional) dependencies.
