| <h2>GroupByKey</h2> |
| <p> |
| GroupByKey is a Beam transform for processing collections of key/value pairs. It’s a parallel |
| reduction operation, analogous to the Shuffle phase of a Map/Shuffle/Reduce-style algorithm. The |
| input to GroupByKey is a collection of key/value pairs that represents a multimap, where the |
| collection contains multiple pairs that have the same key, but different values. Given such a |
| collection, you use GroupByKey to collect all of the values associated with each unique key. |
