Evolving Schema
About This Task
You evolve a schema when you create a new version. Schema Registry tracks the changes made to your schema, and stores each set of changes in a seperate version of the schema. When multiple versions exist, you can select which version you want to use. Ensure that you understand compatibility policies, as they determine how you can evolve your schemas.
