+**Note:** Table API and SQL queries can be easily integrated with and
embedded into DataStream or DataSet programs. Have a look a the [Integration
with DataStream and DataSet API](#integration-with-datastream-and-dataset-api)
section to learn how DataStreams and DataSets can be converted into Tables and
vice versa.

Create a TableEnvironment
-------------------------
-A `Table` is always bound to a specific `TableEnvironment`. It is not
possible to combine Tables of different TableEnvironments.
+The `TableEnvironment` is a central concept of the Table API and SQL
integration. It is responsible for:
+* Registering a `Table` in the internal catalog
+* Registering an external catalog
+* Executing SQL queries
+* Registering a user-defined (scalar, table, or aggregation) function
+* Converting a `DataStream` or `DataSet` into a `Table`
+* Holding a reference to an `ExecutionEnvironment` or
`StreamExecutionEnvironment`
+
+A `Table` is always bound to a specific `TableEnvironment`. It is not
process tables of different TableEnvironments in the same query, e.g., to join
or union them.
+
+A `TableEnvironment` is created by calling the static
`TableEnvironment.getTableEnvironment()` method with a
`StreamExecutionEnvironment` or an `ExecutionEnvironment` and an optional
`TableConfig`. The `TableConfig` can be used to configure the
`TableEnvironment` or to customize the query optimization and translation
process (see [Query Optimization](#query-optimization)).

Do we need uniform annotation style?
In this doc sometime use `// For batch programs ...` sometime use
```
// ***************
// STREAMING QUERY
// ***************
```
When user see the doc will feeling a bit strange. What do you think?
