Answer 1

def anyTypeToByteArray(value: Any): Array[Byte] = {
    val valueConverted :Array[Byte] = SerializationUtils.serialize(value.isInstanceOf[Serializable])
    valueConverted
  }

  def ByteArrayToAny(value: Array[Byte]): Any = {
    val valueConverted: Any = SerializationUtils.deserialize(value)
    valueConverted
  }
