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

             Summary: Allow FlinkKinesisConsumer to skip corrupted messages
                 Key: FLINK-6004
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-6004
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Tzu-Li (Gordon) Tai


It is quite clear from the fix of FLINK-3679 that in reality, users might encounter corrupted messages from Kafka / Kinesis / generally external sources when deserializing them.

The consumers should support simply skipping those messages, by letting the deserialization schema return `null`, and checking `null` values within the consumer.

This has been done for the Kafka consumer already. This ticket tracks the improvement for the Kinesis consumer.
