------------------------------------
Summary: Add interface to register external catalogs in the
TableEnvironment
Key: FLINK-3851
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3851
Project: Flink
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Table API
Reporter: Fabian Hueske
The {{TableEnvironment}} holds an internal table catalog to provide SQL and
Table API queries access to structured data. At the moment, DataSets,
DataStreams, and TableSources which refer to external tables can be registered
as tables.
This issue proposes to implement an interface to connect external catalogs such
as Hive's HCatalog or Confluent's SchemaRegistry for Apache Kafka to the
{{TableEnvironment}}. With this interface, it should be possible to look-up and
access tables which are registered in external catalogs.
