Indexes are built in the embedded library and on a deployment, which builds them in the background, keeps most of them current, and builds only IVF_FLAT, IVF_PQ, IVF_RQ and IVF_HNSW_SQ vector indexes. Compaction runs on both, by optimize() locally and in the background on a deployment; cleanup on a deployment runs only where its configuration enables it, so it varies; background jobs exist only on a deployment. Sections that described one offering as if it were both now name it: optimize() is embedded only, the brute-force limit and automatic IVF_PQ are deployment settings, FM indexes get no background updates, a remainder below the deployment's threshold can keep wait_for_index from finishing, GPU builds on a deployment are IVF_PQ with a configured GPU count, list_indices on a deployment omits num_unindexed_rows, and the background jobs page no longer says every other job is one you start.
