Ensure key encoding for state requests is consistent across SDKs
URL: https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/9484#issuecomment-535857787
 
 
   Hi @mxm, Sorry for late reply. I go through the changes of this PR and found 
that the solution in this PR is the same as #9464. The functionality of Java 
side changes is the same as #9464. Regarding to the Python part, it's a good 
catch. I think it will be better to recover the changes of #9464 and add fixes 
for the Python part on top of it. I don't think it's a best way to revert the 
contributions in this case. Even we revert a commit in some reason, we should 
also recover it if we finally find the original solution is correct. This is a 
respect for the contributors and the committers.
   
   What do you think?  @mxm @tweise @lukecwik 
   
   Best, Jincheng

> The Flink runner requires the internal key to be encoded without a length 
> prefix (OUTER context). The user state request handler exposes a serialized 
> version of the key to the Runner. This key is encoded with the NESTED context 
> which may add a length prefix. We need to convert it to OUTER context to 
> match the Flink runner's key encoding.
> So far this has not caused the Flink Runner to behave incorrectly. However, 
> with the upcoming support for Flink 1.9, the state backend will not accept 
> requests for keys not part of any key group/partition of the operator. This 
> is very likely to happen with the encoding not being consistent.
> **NOTE** This is only applicable to the Java SDK, as the Python SDK uses 
> OUTER encoding for the key in state requests.
