             Summary: Faul-tolerant sideInputs via Broadcast variables.
                 Key: BEAM-647
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-647
             Project: Beam
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: runner-spark
            Reporter: Amit Sela
            Assignee: Amit Sela


Following https://github.com/apache/incubator-beam/pull/909 which enables 
checkpointing to recover from failures, sideInputs (being implemented by 
broadcast variables) should be handled in a specific manner as described here: 
http://spark.apache.org/docs/1.6.2/streaming-programming-guide.html#accumulators-and-broadcast-variables.

This is a bit more complicated than Aggregators (via Accumulators) as they are 
implemented using a single "aggregating"  Accumulator, while a pipeline may 
contain multiple sideInputs.
