      Work Description: iemejia commented on issue #8418: [BEAM-6479] Deprecate 
AvroIO.RecordFormatter
URL: https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/8418#issuecomment-501432203
 
 
   What is proposed here is that Beam users should not use a `RecordFormatter` 
to convert from `ElementT` to `GenericRecord` when writing, but better do this 
explicitly in an extra `ParDo.of(new DoFn<ElementT, GenericRecord>)` before. 
There is in practice little difference (apart of the fact that using ParDo is 
more composable and  'Beamish').  Full materialization should not happen 
because DoFns are normally fusioned by the runner, of course there could be a 
small minor extra cost because of the extra DoFn instantiation but probably 
negligable.

>  AvroIO.RecordFormatter is an user friendly way to transform user elements 
> into Avro GenericRecords before writing to a Sink. This can be achieved 
> easily by doing a ParDo with the same goal and using Sink that knows how to 
> write a PCollection of IndexedRecords. Like the one proposed in BEAM-6480
