The document discusses type providers in programming languages that allow information from external sources like databases or web services to be integrated directly into a language's type system. It lists many different type providers that have been developed to surface data from sources like CSV files, HTML, JSON, XML, as well as providers for specific services like WorldBank, Freebase, and databases.
