Can we get an official answer from ServiceNow on this?



Everyone has a slightly different definition.



It's not clear in the Product Documentation and it is an examinable question.


They give examples but not a clear definition.

Perhaps flag that up in Docs, see if you get any response from there.   I flagged it up some time back but heard nothing back, so hopefully you'll get more than I do.


and it is an examinable question.


Unfortunately much content for training and exams is based on the docs, so if documentation is unclear then that vagueness populates through.   I've seen paragraphs copied verbatim from docs appear in training materials (typos and ambiguity included).

Hello paablo, this is an official source you can check, it is explained in the video: 

Base vs Core Tables explained

Let me know if it was helpful.

I always had this question, this video tutorial helped me to understand from the basics.

Thank you.
