Hi Aljoscha, Thanks for starting the discussion. We should definitely not keep flink-expressions.
I'm in favor of DataTable for the DataSet abstraction equivalent. For consistency, the package name should then be flink-table. At first sight, the name seems kind of plain but I think it is quite intuitive because the API enables you to work in a SQL like fashion.
