Sriharsha Chintalapani commented on STORM-1757:
-----------------------------------------------
[~revans2] [~ptgoetz]
my bad I started with "unifying APIs" :). what I meant is to have one API to do
per tuple and micro batching instead of current situation of storm-core and
trident. I wanted to explore if beam could be that API with which we can per
tuple and micro batching . If its a possibility than we can slowly deprecate
trident.
"That approach would offer a unified API (Beam) over Core/Trident, which would
be nice"
This what I meant in my earlier comment.
If we keep adding more APIs we only going to have more problems :). From my
experience in talking to users, either they don't understand trident or they
complain why they have to write in two different apis for per-tuple and micro
batching. If Beam is not there yet we need to re-think our current API
approach instead of having core and trident as separate apis addressing
different use cases we should invest in having a single API that can address
both.
[~parth.brahmbhatt] [~satish.duggana] was suggesting using Java 8 api before in
our discussions. I don't want to add more apis but having Single API to do both
would be really great for users and the community.
I don't want to derail the discussion of beam here but thought this is relevant
to this discussion. Given we are working on java migration as part storm 2.0 I
think we should consider having a single API for 2.0 release.

> Project: Apache Storm
> Issue Type: Brainstorming
> Reporter: P. Taylor Goetz
> Priority: Minor
>
> This is a call for interested parties to collaborate on an Apache Beam [1]
> runner for Storm, and express their thoughts and opinions.
> Given the addition of the Windowing API to Apache Storm, we should be able to
> map naturally to the Beam API. If not, it may be indicative of shortcomings
> of the Storm API that should be addressed.
