    Hi,
    External objects are similar to custom objects, except that they map to data that's stored outside your Salesforce org. Each external object relies on an external data source definition to connect with the external system's data. Each external object definition maps to a data table on the external system.

    External objects are similar to custom objects and it's available with Salesforce Connect and Files Connect. Each external object is associated with an external data source definition in your Salesforce organization. It has a reference to its external data source and a table within that source.
