We are happy to present the new 2.41.0 release of Beam.
This release includes both improvements and new functionality.
See the download page for this release.

For more information on changes in 2.41.0, check out the detailed release notes.

I/Os

  • Projection Pushdown optimizer is now on by default for streaming, matching the behavior of batch pipelines since 2.38.0. If you encounter a bug with the optimizer, please file an issue and disable the optimizer using pipeline option --experiments=disable_projection_pushdown.

New Features / Improvements

  • Previously available in Java sdk, Python sdk now also supports logging level overrides per module. (#18222).

Breaking Changes

  • Projection Pushdown optimizer may break Dataflow upgrade compatibility for optimized pipelines when it removes unused fields. If you need to upgrade and encounter a compatibility issue, disable the optimizer using pipeline option --experiments=disable_projection_pushdown.

Deprecations

  • Support for Spark 2.4.x is deprecated and will be dropped with the release of Beam 2.44.0 or soon after (Spark runner) (#22094).
  • The modules amazon-web-services and
    kinesis for AWS Java SDK v1 are deprecated
    in favor of amazon-web-services2
    and will be eventually removed after a few Beam releases (Java) (#21249).

Bugfixes

  • Fixed a condition where retrying queries would yield an incorrect cursor in the Java SDK Firestore Connector (#22089).
  • Fixed plumbing allowed lateness in Go SDK. It was ignoring the user set value earlier and always used to set to 0. (#22474).

Beam 2.38.0 release

20 Apr 23:03
Compare
Choose a tag to compare

We are happy to present the new 2.38.0 release of Beam.
This release includes both improvements and new functionality.
See the download page for this release.

For more information on changes in 2.38.0 check out the detailed release notes.

I/Os

  • Introduce projection pushdown optimizer to the Java SDK (BEAM-12976). The optimizer currently only works on the BigQuery Storage API, but more I/Os will be added in future releases. If you encounter a bug with the optimizer, please file a JIRA and disable the optimizer using pipeline option --experiments=disable_projection_pushdown.
  • A new IO for Neo4j graph databases was added. (BEAM-1857) It has the ability to update nodes and relationships using UNWIND statements and to read data using cypher statements with parameters.
  • amazon-web-services2 has reached feature parity and is finally recommended over the earlier amazon-web-services and kinesis modules (Java). These will be deprecated in one of the next releases (BEAM-13174).

New Features / Improvements

  • Pipeline dependencies supplied through --requirements_file will now be staged to the runner using binary distributions (wheels) of the PyPI packages for linux_x86_64 platform (BEAM-4032). To restore the behavior to use source distributions, set pipeline option --requirements_cache_only_sources. To skip staging the packages at submission time, set pipeline option --requirements_cache=skip (Python).
  • The Flink runner now supports Flink 1.14.x (BEAM-13106).
  • Interactive Beam now supports remotely executing Flink pipelines on Dataproc (Python) (BEAM-14071).

Breaking Changes

  • (Python) Previously DoFn.infer_output_types was expected to return Iterable[element_type] where element_type is the PCollection elemnt type. It is now expected to return element_type. Take care if you have overriden infer_output_type in a DoFn (this is not common). See BEAM-13860.
  • (amazon-web-services2) The types of awsRegion / endpoint in AwsOptions changed from String to Region / URI (BEAM-13563).

Deprecations

  • Beam 2.38.0 will be the last minor release to support Flink 1.11.
  • (amazon-web-services2) Client providers (withXYZClientProvider()) as well as IO specific RetryConfigurations are deprecated, instead use withClientConfiguration() or AwsOptions to configure AWS IOs / clients.
    Custom implementations of client providers shall be replaced with a respective ClientBuilderFactory and configured through AwsOptions (BEAM-13563).

Bugfixes

  • Fix S3 copy for large objects (Java) (BEAM-14011)
  • Fix quadratic behavior of pipeline canonicalization (Go) (BEAM-14128)
    • This caused unnecessarily long pre-processing times before job submission for large complex pipelines.
  • Fix pyarrow version parsing (Python)(BEAM-14235)

Beam 2.35.0 release

30 Dec 02:00
Compare
Choose a tag to compare

We are happy to present the new 2.35.0 release of Apache Beam.
This release includes both improvements and new functionality.
See the download page for this release.

For more information on changes in 2.35.0, check out the detailed release
notes
.

Highlights

  • MultiMap side inputs are now supported by the Go SDK (BEAM-3293).
  • Side inputs are supported within Splittable DoFns for Dataflow Runner V1 and Dataflow Runner V2. (BEAM-12522).
  • Upgrades Log4j version used in test suites (Apache Beam testing environment only, not for end user consumption) to 2.17.0(BEAM-13434).
    Note that Apache Beam versions do not depend on the Log4j 2 dependency (log4j-core) impacted by CVE-2021-44228.
    However we urge users to update direct and indirect dependencies (if any) on Log4j 2 to the latest version by updating their build configuration and redeploying impacted pipelines.

I/Os

  • We changed the data type for ranges in JdbcIO.readWithPartitions from int to long (BEAM-13149).
    This is a relatively minor breaking change, which we're implementing to improve the usability of the transform without increasing cruft.
    This transform is relatively new, so we may implement other breaking changes in the future to improve its usability.
  • Side inputs are supported within Splittable DoFns for Dataflow Runner V1 and Dataflow Runner V2. (BEAM-12522).

New Features / Improvements

  • Added custom delimiters to Python TextIO reads (BEAM-12730).
  • Added escapechar parameter to Python TextIO reads (BEAM-13189).
  • Splittable reading is enabled by default while reading data with ParquetIO (BEAM-12070).
  • DoFn Execution Time metrics added to Go (BEAM-13001).
  • Cross-bundle side input caching is now available in the Go SDK for runners that support the feature by setting the EnableSideInputCache hook (BEAM-11097).
  • Upgraded the GCP Libraries BOM version to 24.0.0 and associated dependencies (BEAM-11205). For Google Cloud client library versions set by this BOM,
    see this table.
  • Removed avro-python3 dependency in AvroIO. Fastavro has already been our Avro library of choice on Python 3. Boolean use_fastavro is left for api compatibility, but will have no effect.(BEAM-13016).
  • MultiMap side inputs are now supported by the Go SDK (BEAM-3293).
  • Remote packages can now be downloaded from locations supported by apache_beam.io.filesystems. The files will be downloaded on Stager and uploaded to staging location. For more information, see BEAM-11275

Breaking Changes

  • A new URN convention was adopted for cross-language transforms and existing URNs were updated. This may break advanced use-cases, for example, if a custom expansion service is used to connect diffrent Beam Java and Python versions. (BEAM-12047).
  • The upgrade to Calcite 1.28.0 introduces a breaking change in the SUBSTRING function in SqlTransform, when used with the Calcite dialect (BEAM-13099, CALCITE-4427).
  • ListShards (with DescribeStreamSummary) is used instead of DescribeStream to list shards in Kinesis streams (AWS SDK v2). Due to this change, as mentioned in AWS documentation, for fine-grained IAM policies it is required to update them to allow calls to ListShards and DescribeStreamSummary APIs. For more information, see Controlling Access to Amazon Kinesis Data Streams (BEAM-13233).

Deprecations

  • Non-splittable reading is deprecated while reading data with ParquetIO (BEAM-12070).

Bugfixes

  • Properly map main input windows to side input windows by default (Go)
    (BEAM-11087).
  • Fixed data loss when writing to DynamoDB without setting deduplication key names (Java)
    (BEAM-13009).
  • Go SDK Examples now have types and functions registered. (Go) (BEAM-5378)

Known Issues

  • Users of beam-sdks-java-io-hcatalog (and beam-sdks-java-extensions-sql-hcatalog) must take care to override the transitive log4j dependency when they add a hive dependency (BEAM-13499).

Compare
Choose a tag to compare

We are happy to present the new 2.34.0 release of Beam.
This release includes both improvements and new functionality.
See the download page for this release.

For more information on changes in 2.34.0, check out the detailed release
notes
.

Highlights

  • The Beam Java API for Calcite SqlTransform is no longer experimental (BEAM-12680).
  • Python's ParDo (Map, FlatMap, etc.) transforms now suport a with_exception_handling option for easily ignoring bad records and implementing the dead letter pattern.

I/Os

  • ReadFromBigQuery and ReadAllFromBigQuery now run queries with BATCH priority by default. The query_priority parameter is introduced to the same transforms to allow configuring the query priority (Python) (BEAM-12913).
  • [EXPERIMENTAL] Support for BigQuery Storage Read API added to ReadFromBigQuery. The newly introduced method parameter can be set as DIRECT_READ to use the Storage Read API. The default is EXPORT which invokes a BigQuery export request. (Python) (BEAM-10917).
  • [EXPERIMENTAL] Added use_native_datetime parameter to ReadFromBigQuery to configure the return type of DATETIME fields when using ReadFromBigQuery. This parameter can only be used when method = DIRECT_READ(Python) (BEAM-10917).

New Features / Improvements

  • Upgrade to Calcite 1.26.0 (BEAM-9379).
  • Added a new dataframe extra to the Python SDK that tracks pandas versions
    we've verified compatibility with. We now recommend installing Beam with pip install apache-beam[dataframe] when you intend to use the DataFrame API
    (BEAM-12906).
  • Add an example of deploying Python Apache Beam job with Spark Cluster

Breaking Changes

  • SQL Rows are no longer flattened (BEAM-5505).
  • [Go SDK] beam.TryCrossLanguage's signature now matches beam.CrossLanguage. Like other Try functions it returns an error instead of panicking. (BEAM-9918).
  • BEAM-12925 was fixed. It used to silently pass incorrect null data read from JdbcIO. Pipelines affected by this will now start throwing failures instead of silently passing incorrect data.

Choose a tag to compare

We are happy to present the new 2.33.0 release of Beam.
This release includes both improvements and new functionality.
See the download page for this release.

For more information on changes in 2.33.0, check out the detailed release
notes
.

Highlights

  • Go SDK is no longer experimental, and is officially part of the Beam release process.
    • Matching Go SDK containers are published on release.
    • Batch usage is well supported, and tested on Flink, Spark, and the Python Portable Runner.
      • SDK Tests are also run against Google Cloud Dataflow, but this doesn't indicate reciprocal support.
    • The SDK supports Splittable DoFns, Cross Language transforms, and most Beam Model basics.
    • Go Modules are now used for dependency management.
      • This is a breaking change, see Breaking Changes for resolution.
      • Easier path to contribute to the Go SDK, no need to set up a GO_PATH.
      • Minimum Go version is now Go v1.16
    • See the announcement blogpost for full information once published.

New Features / Improvements

  • Projection pushdown in SchemaIO (BEAM-12609).
  • Upgrade Flink runner to Flink versions 1.13.2, 1.12.5 and 1.11.4 (BEAM-10955).

Breaking Changes

  • Since release 2.30.0, "The AvroCoder changes for BEAM-2303 [changed] the reader/writer from the Avro ReflectDatum* classes to the SpecificDatum* classes" (Java). This default behavior change has been reverted in this release. Use the useReflectApi setting to control it (BEAM-12628).

Deprecations

  • Python GBK will stop supporting unbounded PCollections that have global windowing and a default trigger in Beam 2.34. This can be overriden with --allow_unsafe_triggers. (BEAM-9487).
  • Python GBK will start requiring safe triggers or the --allow_unsafe_triggers flag starting with Beam 2.34. (BEAM-9487).

Bugfixes

  • UnsupportedOperationException when reading from BigQuery tables and converting
    TableRows to Beam Rows (Java)
    (BEAM-12479).
  • SDFBoundedSourceReader behaves much slower compared with the original behavior
    of BoundedSource (Python)
    (BEAM-12781).
  • ORDER BY column not in SELECT crashes (ZetaSQL)
    (BEAM-12759).

Known Issues

  • Spark 2.x users will need to update Spark's Jackson runtime dependencies (spark.jackson.version) to at least version 2.9.2, due to Beam updating its dependencies.
  • See a full list of open issues that affect this version.
  • Go SDK jobs may produce "Failed to deduce Step from MonitoringInfo" messages following successful job execution. The messages are benign and don't indicate job failure. These are due to not yet handling PCollection metrics.
