-**Note:** A registered `Table` is treated similarly to a `VIEW` as known from
relational database systems, i.e., the query that defines the `Table` is not
optimized but will be inlined when another query references the registered
`Table`. If multiple queries reference the same registered `Table`, it will be
inlined for each referencing query and executed multiple times, i.e., the
result of the registered `Table` will *not* be shared.

-### Register a TableSource
-
-A `TableSource` provides access to external data which is stored in a storage
system such as a database (MySQL, HBase, ...), a file with a specific encoding
(CSV, Apache \[Parquet, Avro, ORC\], ...), or a messaging system (Apache Kafka,
RabbitMQ, ...).
-
-Flink aims to provide TableSources for common data formats and storage
systems. Please have a look at the [Table Sources and Sinks]({{ site.baseurl
}}/dev/table/sourceSinks.html) page for a list of supported TableSources and
instructions for how to build a custom `TableSource`.
