Description

Google Cloud Bigtable is currently in Beta. https://cloud.google.com/bigtable/ A bounded source is included in the initial code for Beam, and does a table scan (with an optional row filter) and dynamic work rebalancing.

The unbounded source should support initial splitting based on key ranges but then streaming along the timestamp dimension.
