Entity types in core come in two variants. 1 - Configuration Entity: Used by the Configuration System (configuration API) ,Configuration entities are stored within the common config database table as rows. 2 - Content Entity: Consist of configurable and base fields, and can have revisions and support translations. Content entities are stored within a custom database table as rows. The table name is the same as the content entity "id", and the columns are defined by the entity's "baseFieldDefinitions" method.
