UUIDSerializer (kafka 2.8.1 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.apache.kafka.common.serialization.UUIDSerializer

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, AutoCloseable, Serializer<UUID>
```
public class UUIDSerializer
extends Object
implements Serializer<UUID>
```
We are converting UUID to String before serializing. String encoding defaults to UTF8 and can be customized by setting the property key.deserializer.encoding, value.deserializer.encoding or deserializer.encoding. The first two take precedence over the last.
