This IO is one of the many Beam IO’s that need to be normalized to be compatible with Beam YAML. Normalization here means that the IO should be consistent across Python and Java SDK in a way that can be exposed to the Beam YAML framework.
For Java, this means taking advantage of the Cross Language framework which allows transforms to be exposed to all the SDK’s through the use of the External Transform service.
For Python, this means ensuring that any existing Python implementations have the same functionality and expose the same parameters as their Java counterparts.
After normalization, an IO transform written in Java and Python can be interchanged freely without compromising any functionality within the rest of the pipeline.
