+1 for exploring other build tools to improve the build time and for better
cross language support. But, as others mentioned, we should continue to
support Maven based builds for some time till things are fully migrated.
For example, we have updated PerfKitBenchmarker to execute Beam jobs
through Maven as a part of the performance testing framework.

https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/PerfKitBenchmarker/blob/eeb6b5a7eda28f681a6a5fb99fae1b71ea1e5615/perfkitbenchmarker/beam_benchmark_helper.py

Thanks,
Cham
