External objects are similar to custom objects, except that they map to data that’s stored outside your Salesforce org. … External objects enable your users and the Lightning Platform to search and interact with the external data. Note. Each org can have up to 100 external objects.

External objects are similar to custom objects, but external object record data is stored outside your Salesforce organization. For example, perhaps you have data that’s stored on premises in an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. Instead of copying the data into your org, you can use external objects to access the data in real time via web service callouts.
