Antoine Pitrou commented on ARROW-1847:
---------------------------------------

This is now documented in {{docs/source/cpp/overview.rst}}.
{quote}Tables are collections of columns in accordance to a schema. They are 
the most capable dataset-providing abstraction in Arrow.

Record batches are collections of contiguous arrays, described by a schema. 
They allow incremental construction or serialization of tables.
