Thomas Weise commented on BEAM-6147:
------------------------------------
At Lyft we implemented a custom factory that is tailored to the Python worker
execution and does not depend on the Docker boot binary:
[https://github.com/lyft/beam/blob/release-2.9.0-lyft/runners/java-fn-execution/src/main/java/org/apache/beam/runners/fnexecution/environment/LyftPythonEnvironmentFactory.java]
It doesn't support artifact staging, but that could also be reimplemented in
Java.

> Issue Type: Task
> Components: runner-flink, sdk-py-harness
> Affects Versions: 2.9.0
> Reporter: Thomas Weise
> Priority: Major
> Labels: portability, portability-flink
>
> Provide an easy to use process environment factory that allows for Python
> worker execution as Docker alternative. Note that we have a base that the
> user can configure and an attempt to utilize it for the Python Flink post
> commit test. However, that setup is specific to the Jenkins environment.
