Thanks all, Combining everyone's comments, I recommend using `flink-table-store`:
## table something to do with table storage (From Till). Not only flink-table, but also for user-oriented tables. ## store vs storage - The first point I think, store is better pronounced, storage is three syllables while store is two syllables - Yes, store also stands for shopping. But I think the English polysemy is also quite interesting, a store to store various items, it also feels interesting to represent the feeling that we want to do data storage. - The first feeling is, storage is a physical object or abstract concept, store is a software application or entity So I prefer `flink-table-store`, what do you think?
