Thanks for your response. The use case is 2 pipelines: A. receives information from kafka and "holds" that info B. a pipeline which is triggered by a scheduler and every x minutes should send the info i received in pipeline A to another kafka topic
Currently these pipelines are implemented by BEAM and I use DB in order to save the output of pipeline A, so when B is triggered I select the relevant info from DB. I would prefer to drop the DB and use internal state if possible. I also tried to merge those pipelines and use the spec state (@stateId) but it did not work. the state was not available for the operator which reads from the scheduler .
