[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-1847?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16738104#comment-16738104 ]
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.
