- Method Detail
  - configure
```
default void configure(Map<String,?> configs,
                       boolean isKey)
```
    Configure this class, which will configure the underlying serializer and deserializer.
    
    Parameters:
    
    configs - configs in key/value pairs
    
    isKey - whether is for key or value
  - close
```
default void close()
```
    Close this serde class, which will close the underlying serializer and deserializer.
    This method has to be idempotent because it might be called multiple times.
