...Kryo can also perform automatic deep and shallow copying/cloning. This is direct copying from object to object, not object to bytes to object. Kryo has three sets of methods for reading and writing objects. If the concrete class of the object is not known and the object could be null. Besides methods to read and write objects, the Kryo class provides a way to register serializers, reads and writes class identifiers efficiently, handles null objects for serializers that can't accept nulls, and handles reading and writing object references (if enabled). ...

...Code generation is an optional optimization, is only worth implementing for statically typed languages. Avro relies on schemas. When Avro data is read, the schema used when writing it is always present. This permits each datum to be written with no per-value overheads, making serialization both fast and small. This also facilitates use with dynamic, scripting languages, since data, together with its schema, is fully self-describing. When Avro data is stored in a file, its schema is stored with it, so that files may be processed later by any program. ...
