Dataflow pipelines simplify the mechanics of large-scale batch and streaming data processing and can run on a number of runtimes like Apache Flink, Apache Spark, and Google Cloud Dataflow (a cloud service). Beam also brings DSL in different languages, allowing users to easily implement their data integration processes.

+<h2 id="introduction">Introduction</h2>
+
+<p>The Apache Beam project periodically declares and publishes releases. A release is one or more packages of the project artifact(s) that are approved for general public distribution and use. They may come with various degrees of caveat regarding their perceived quality and potential for change, such as \u201calpha\u201d, \u201cbeta\u201d, \u201cincubating\u201d, \u201cstable\u201d, etc.</p>
+
+<p>The Beam community treats releases with great importance. They are a public face of the project and most users interact with the project only through the releases. Releases are signed off by the entire Beam community in a public vote.</p>
+
+<p>Each release is executed by a <em>Release Manager</em>, who is selected among the <a href="/project/team">Beam committers</a>. This document describes the process that the Release Manager follows to perform a release. Any changes to this process should be discussed and adopted on the <a href="/use/mailing-lists">dev@ mailing list</a>.</p>
+
+<p>Please remember that publishing software has legal consequences. This guide complements the foundation-wide <a href="http://www.apache.org/dev/release.html">Product Release Policy</a> and <a href="http://www.apache.org/dev/release-distribution">Release Distribution Policy</a>.</p>
+
+<h2 id="overview">Overview</h2>
+
+<p><img src="/images/release-guide-1.png" alt="Alt text" title="Release Process" width="100%" /></p>
+
+<p>The release process consists of several steps:</p>
+
+<ol>
+  <li>Decide to release</li>
+  <li>Prepare for the release</li>
+  <li>Build a release candidate</li>
+  <li>Vote on the release candidate</li>
+  <li>If necessary, fix any issues and go back to step 3.</li>
+  <li>Finalize the release</li>
+  <li>Promote the release</li>
+</ol>
+
+<hr />
+
+<h2 id="decide-to-release">Decide to release</h2>
+
+<p>Deciding to release and selecting a Release Manager is the first step of the release process. This is a consensus-based decision of the entire community.</p>
+
+<p>Anybody can propose a release on the dev@ mailing list, giving a solid argument and nominating a committer as the Release Manager (including themselves). There\u2019s no formal process, no vote requirements, and no timing requirements. Any objections should be resolved by consensus before starting the release.</p>
+
+<p>In general, the community prefers to have a rotating set of 3-5 Release Managers. Keeping a small core set of managers allows enough people to build expertise in this area and improve processes over time, without Release Managers needing to re-learn the processes for each release. That said, if you are a committer interested in serving the community in this way, please reach out to the community on the dev@ mailing list.</p>
+
+<h3 id="checklist-to-proceed-to-the-next-step">Checklist to proceed to the next step</h3>
+
+<ol>
+  <li>Community agrees to release</li>
+  <li>Community selects a Release Manager</li>
+</ol>
+
+<hr />
+
+<h2 id="prepare-for-the-release">Prepare for the release</h2>
+
+<p>Before your first release, you should perform one-time configuration steps. This will set up your security keys for signing the release and access to various release repositories.</p>
+
+<p>To prepare for each release, you should audit the project status in the JIRA issue tracker, and do necessary bookkeeping. Finally, you should create a release branch from which individual release candidates will be built.</p>
+
+<h3 id="one-time-setup-instructions">One-time setup instructions</h3>
+
+<h4 id="gpg-key">GPG Key</h4>
+
+<p>You need to have a GPG key to sign the release artifacts. Please be aware of the ASF-wide <a href="https://www.apache.org/dev/release-signing.html">release signing guidelines</a>. If you don\u2019t have a GPG key associated with your Apache account, please create one according to the guidelines.</p>
+
+<p>Determine your Apache GPG Key and Key ID, as follows:</p>
+
+<div class="highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code>gpg --list-keys
+</code></pre>
+</div>
+
+<p>This will list your GPG keys. One of these should reflect your Apache account, for example:</p>
+
+<div class="highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code>--------------------------------------------------
+pub   2048R/845E6689 2016-02-23
+uid                  Nomen Nescio &lt;anonymous@apache.org&gt;
+sub   2048R/BA4D50BE 2016-02-23
+</code></pre>
+</div>
+
+<p>Here, the key ID is the 8-digit hex string in the <code class="highlighter-rouge">pub</code> line: <code class="highlighter-rouge">845E6689</code>.</p>
+
+<p>Now, add your Apache GPG key to the Beam\u2019s <code class="highlighter-rouge">KEYS</code> file both in <a href="https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/incubator/beam/KEYS"><code class="highlighter-rouge">dev</code></a> and <a href="https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/incubator/beam/KEYS"><code class="highlighter-rouge">release</code></a> repositories at <code class="highlighter-rouge">dist.apache.org</code>. Follow the instructions listed at the top of these files.</p>
+
+<p>Configure <code class="highlighter-rouge">git</code> to use this key when signing code by giving it your key ID, as follows:</p>
+
+<div class="highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code>git config --global user.signingkey 845E6689
+</code></pre>
+</div>
+
+<p>You may drop the <code class="highlighter-rouge">--global</code> option if you\u2019d prefer to use this key for the current repository only.</p>
+
+<h4 id="access-to-apache-nexus-repository">Access to Apache Nexus repository</h4>
+
+<p>Configure access to the <a href="http://repository.apache.org/">Apache Nexus repository</a>, which enables final deployment of releases to the Maven Central Repository.</p>
+
+<ol>
+  <li>You log in with your Apache account.</li>
+  <li>Confirm you have appropriate access by finding <code class="highlighter-rouge">org.apache.beam</code> under <code class="highlighter-rouge">Staging Profiles</code>.</li>
+  <li>Navigate to your <code class="highlighter-rouge">Profile</code> (top right dropdown menu of the page).</li>
+  <li>Choose <code class="highlighter-rouge">User Token</code> from the dropdown, then click <code class="highlighter-rouge">Access User Token</code>. Copy a snippet of the Maven XML configuration block.</li>
+  <li>
+    <p>Insert this snippet twice into your global Maven <code class="highlighter-rouge">settings.xml</code> file, typically <code class="highlighter-rouge">${HOME}/.m2/settings.xml</code>. The end result should look like this, where <code class="highlighter-rouge">TOKEN_NAME</code> and <code class="highlighter-rouge">TOKEN_PASSWORD</code> are your secret tokens:</p>
+
+    <div class="highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code> &lt;settings&gt;
+   &lt;servers&gt;
+     &lt;server&gt;
+       &lt;id&gt;apache.releases.https&lt;/id&gt;
+       &lt;username&gt;TOKEN_NAME&lt;/username&gt;
+       &lt;password&gt;TOKEN_PASSWORD&lt;/password&gt;
+     &lt;/server&gt;
+     &lt;server&gt;
+       &lt;id&gt;apache.snapshots.https&lt;/id&gt;
+       &lt;username&gt;TOKEN_NAME&lt;/username&gt;
+       &lt;password&gt;TOKEN_PASSWORD&lt;/password&gt;
+     &lt;/server&gt;
+   &lt;/servers&gt;
+ &lt;/settings&gt;
+</code></pre>
+    </div>
+  </li>
+</ol>
+
+<h4 id="website-development-setup">Website development setup</h4>
+
+<p>Get ready for updating the Beam website by following the <a href="/contribute/contribution-guide/#website">website development instructions</a>.</p>
+
+<h3 id="create-a-new-version-in-jira">Create a new version in JIRA</h3>
+
+<p>When contributors resolve an issue in JIRA, they are tagging it with a release that will contain their changes. With the release currently underway, new issues should be resolved against a subsequent future release. Therefore, you should create a release item for this subsequent release, as follows:</p>
+
+<ol>
+  <li>In JIRA, navigate to the <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/plugins/servlet/project-config/BEAM/versions"><code class="highlighter-rouge">Beam &gt; Administration &gt; Versions</code></a>.</li>
+  <li>Add a new release: choose the next minor version number compared to the one currently underway, select today\u2019s date as the <code class="highlighter-rouge">Start Date</code>, and choose <code class="highlighter-rouge">Add</code>.</li>
+</ol>
+
+<h3 id="triage-release-blocking-issues-in-jira">Triage release-blocking issues in JIRA</h3>
+
+<p>There could be outstanding release-blocking issues, which should be triaged before proceeding to build a release candidate. We track them by assigning a specific <code class="highlighter-rouge">Fix version</code> field even before the issue resolved.</p>
+
+<p>The list of release-blocking issues is available at the <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM/?selectedTab=com.atlassian.jira.jira-projects-plugin:versions-panel">version status page</a>. Triage each unresolved issue with one of the following resolutions:</p>
+
+<ul>
+  <li>If the issue has been resolved and JIRA was not updated, resolve it accordingly.</li>
+  <li>If the issue has not been resolved and it is acceptable to defer this until the next release, update the <code class="highlighter-rouge">Fix Version</code> field to the new version you just created. Please consider discussing this with stakeholders and the dev@ mailing list, as appropriate.</li>
+  <li>If the issue has not been resolved and it is not acceptable to release until it is fixed, the release cannot proceed. Instead, work with the Beam community to resolve the issue.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h3 id="review-release-notes-in-jira">Review Release Notes in JIRA</h3>
+
+<p>JIRA automatically generates Release Notes based on the <code class="highlighter-rouge">Fix Version</code> field applied to issues. Release Notes are intended for Beam users (not Beam committers/contributors). You should ensure that Release Notes are informative and useful.</p>
+
+<p>Open the release notes from the <a href="https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM/?selectedTab=com.atlassian.jira.jira-projects-plugin:versions-panel">version status page</a> by choosing the release underway and clicking Release Notes.</p>
+
+<p>You should verify that the issues listed automatically by JIRA are appropriate to appear in the Release Notes. Specifically, issues should:</p>
+
+<ul>
+  <li>Be appropriately classified as <code class="highlighter-rouge">Bug</code>, <code class="highlighter-rouge">New Feature</code>, <code class="highlighter-rouge">Improvement</code>, etc.</li>
+  <li>Represent noteworthy user-facing changes, such as new functionality, backward-incompatible API changes, or performance improvements.</li>
+  <li>Have occurred since the previous release; an issue that was introduced and fixed between releases should not appear in the Release Notes.</li>
+  <li>Have an issue title that makes sense when read on its own.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>Adjust any of the above properties to the improve clarity and presentation of the Release Notes.</p>
+
+<h3 id="create-a-release-branch">Create a release branch</h3>
+
+<p>Release candidates are built from a release branch. As a final step in preparation for the release, you should create the release branch, push it to the code repository, and update version information on the original branch.</p>
+
+<p>Check out the version of the codebase from which you start the release. For a new minor or major release, this may be <code class="highlighter-rouge">HEAD</code> of the <code class="highlighter-rouge">master</code> branch. To build a hotfix/incremental release, instead of the <code class="highlighter-rouge">master</code> branch, use the release tag of the release being patched. (Please make sure your cloned repository is up-to-date before starting.)</p>
+
+<div class="highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code>git checkout &lt;master branch OR release tag&gt;
+</code></pre>
+</div>
+
+<p>Set up a few environment variables to simplify Maven commands that follow. (We use <code class="highlighter-rouge">bash</code> Unix syntax in this guide.)</p>
+
+<div class="highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code>VERSION="1.2.3-incubating"
+NEXT_VERSION="1.2.4-incubating"
+BRANCH_NAME="release-${VERSION}"
+DEVELOPMENT_VERSION="${NEXT_VERSION}-SNAPSHOT"
+</code></pre>
+</div>
+
+<p>Version represents the release currently underway, while next version specifies the anticipated next version to be released from that branch. Normally, 1.2.0 is followed by 1.3.0, while 1.2.3 is followed by 1.2.4.</p>
+
+<p>Use Maven release plugin to create the release branch and update the current branch to use the new development version. This command applies for the new major or minor version. (Warning: this command automatically pushes changes to the code repository.)</p>
+
+<div class="highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code>mvn release:branch \
+    -DbranchName=${BRANCH_NAME} \
+    -DdevelopmentVersion=${DEVELOPMENT_VERSION}
+</code></pre>
+</div>
+
+<p>However, if you are doing an incremental/hotfix release, please run the following command after checking out the release tag of the release being patched.</p>
+
+<div class="highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code>mvn release:branch \
+    -DbranchName=${BRANCH_NAME} \
+    -DupdateWorkingCopyVersions=false \
+    -DupdateBranchVersions=true \
+    -DreleaseVersion="${VERSION}-SNAPSHOT"
+</code></pre>
+</div>
+
+<p>Check out the release branch.</p>
+
+<div class="highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code>git checkout ${BRANCH_NAME}
+</code></pre>
+</div>
+
+<p>The rest of this guide assumes that commands are run in the root of a repository on <code class="highlighter-rouge">${BRANCH_NAME}</code> with the above environment variables set.</p>

+<h2 id="build-a-release-candidate">Build a release candidate</h2>
+
+<p>The core of the release process is the build-vote-fix cycle. Each cycle produces one release candidate. The Release Manager repeats this cycle until the community approves one release candidate, which is then finalized.</p>
+
+<h3 id="build-and-stage-java-artifacts-with-maven">Build and stage Java artifacts with Maven</h3>
+
+<p>Set up a few environment variables to simplify Maven commands that follow. This identifies the release candidate being built. Start with <code class="highlighter-rouge">RC_NUM</code> equal to <code class="highlighter-rouge">1</code> and increment it for each candidate.</p>
+
+<div class="highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code>RC_NUM="1"
+TAG="v${VERSION}-RC${RC_NUM}"

+<p>Use Maven release plugin to stage these artifacts on the Apache Nexus repository, as follows:</p>
+
+<div class="highlighter-rouge"><pre class="highlight"><code>mvn release:perform
+</code></pre>
+</div>
+
+<p>Review all staged artifacts. They should contain all relevant parts for each module, including <code class="highlighter-rouge">pom.xml</code>, jar, test jar, source, test source, javadoc, etc. Artifact names should follow <a href="https://search.maven.org/#search%7Cga%7C1%7Cg%3A%22org.apache.beam%22">the existing format</a> in which artifact name mirrors directory structure, e.g., <code class="highlighter-rouge">beam-sdks-java-io-kafka</code>. Carefully review any new artifacts.</p>
+
+<p>Close the staging repository on Apache Nexus. When prompted for a description, enter \u201cApache Beam, version X, release candidate Y\u201d.</p>
+
+<h3 id="stage-source-release-on-distapacheorg">Stage source release on dist.apache.org</h3>

(<a href="https://github.com/apache/incubator-beam/pull/1015">Pull request #1015</a> will hopefully simplify this process.)</p>
+
+<p>Please carefully review the generated Javadoc. Check for completeness and presence of all relevant packages and <code class="highlighter-rouge">package-info.java</code>; consider adding less relevant packages to the <code class="highlighter-rouge">excludePackageNames</code> configuration.

 <p>Apache Beam (incubating) provides a portable API layer for building sophisticated data-parallel processing engines that may be executed across a diversity of exeuction engines, or <i>runners</i>. The core concepts of this layer are based upon the Beam Model (formerly referred to as the <a href="http://www.vldb.org/pvldb/vol8/p1792-Akidau.pdf">Dataflow Model</a>), and implemented to varying degrees in each Beam runner. To help clarify the capabilities of individual runners, we\u2019ve created the capability matrix below.</p>
