Hello,

I came across the following in SDK Harness Documentation page:
https://beam.apache.org/documentation/runtime/sdk-harness-config/

environment_type:
EXTERNAL: User code will be dispatched to an external service. For example, one 
can start an external service for Python workers by running docker run 
-p=50000:50000 apache/beam_python3.6_sdk --worker_pool.

  *   environment_config: Address for the external service, e.g. 
localhost:50000.
Does this mean, as an end user of Beam, I can start a worker pool and have my 
Pipeline executed by this pool of workers (or, are these options strictly 
internal)? What should be the runner value in PiupelineOptions in that case?

Thank you,
Regards,
Buvana
