release.

+
+For more information on changes in 2.71.0, check out the [detailed release
notes](https://github.com/apache/beam/milestone/39).
+
+## I/Os
+
+* (Java) Elasticsearch 9 Support
([#36491](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/36491)).
+* (Java) Upgraded HCatalogIO to Hive 4.0.1
([#32189](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/32189)).
+
+## New Features / Improvements
+
+* Support configuring Firestore database on ReadFn transforms (Java)
([#36904](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/36904)).
+* (Python) Inference args are now allowed in most model handlers, except where
they are explicitly/intentionally disallowed
([#37093](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/37093)).
+
+## Bugfixes
+
+* Fixed FirestoreV1 Beam connectors allow configuring inconsistent
project/database IDs between RPC requests and routing headers #36895 (Java)
([#36895](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/36895)).
+* Logical type and coder registry are saved for pipelines in the case of
default pickler ([#36271](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/36271)). This
fixes a side effect of switching to cloudpickle as default pickler in Beam
2.65.0 (Python) ([#35738](https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/35738)).
