@msumit nice work! However, I think that we first have to agree as a community if we want to maintain custom XCom backends. Those can be either simple or complex code. In my opinion users already have most of the tools to build XCom backends that are suited their needs (for example plenty of hooks) and they can build solution that answer 100% of their needs. Also, adding more custom stuff to Airflow core in my opinion is not a best idea - community will have to maintain it. If we decide to have XCom backends in main repo, then we should: - define how generic or problem oriented should the backends be - make sure it's easy to extend them to adjust to users needs - all have proper documentation and tests What others think? @ashb @kaxil @potiuk @mik-laj @XD-DENG ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
