Hi Flink users, I am a big fan of table API and we are extensively using it on petabytes with ad-hoc queries. In our system, nobody goes and writes table creation DDL, we inherit table schema from schema registry(avro data in Kafka) dynamically and create temporary tables in the session.
I am using methods like `connect`, `registerTableSource` to generate my tables dynamically which are now giving deprecation warnings. It is just simply not practical to write SQL for table generation with schema. I may end-up doing a lot of string operation for generating SQL statement from Avro Schema for generating tables and use `executeSql`, but I don't think it will be as cleaner as using `connect`, `registerTableSource`. I am little bit worried about fetching new Flink releases to my application now. Is there any specific reason low level support for creating tables are getting deprecated?
