> Project: Beam

> Priority: P2
> Labels: stale-P2
>
> Beam container image includes several dependencies that are not essential to
> Beam, but may be commonly used by some users. Some dependencies may be
> relevant only for particular runners.
> Installing dependencies in Beam containers increases image size. For example,
> installing TensorFlow adds ~1G or so of space into the unpacked image.
> Some Beam users may be size conscious, and would prefer an image with minimal
> dependencies.
> Some Beam users and Beam runner maintainers may prefer an image that includes
> additional dependencies. These extended images may provide better user
> experience in some scenarios, but the overall image would be larger.
> We should consider splitting beam image into slim and regular version to
> accommodate these different usage scenarios.
