Description

We have a KIP which implements global KTable and explains its design reasoning and comparison with general KTable. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-99%3A+Add+Global+Tables+to+Kafka+Streams

The part missing is on the official documentation to port this information, and let user make this choice easier.
