[jira] [Commented] (BEAM-9623) Add support for configuring TableProviders in Python SqlTransform

["Brian Hulette (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-9623?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17097582#comment-17097582 ] 

Brian Hulette commented on BEAM-9623:
-------------------------------------

We should only try to support metastore table providers here. For table providers for specific sources (e.g. PubsubJson), we should wait for https://s.apache.org/xlang-table-provider

There are really only two meta-stores currently supported in Beam SQL: 
- GCP DataCatalog (no configuration required)
- HCatalog (user needs to specify a Map<String, String> configuration)

User may also want to use more than one simultaneously and specify a default one.
