lancedb now holds a page at every path the site publishes, including the twelve Enterprise ones. Those are real open-source pages -- what the capability is, and what the embedded form does instead -- rather than blank placeholders, so the open-source site is complete on its own. sophon becomes an overlay whose page replaces the one at the same path, which means navigation lives in one place and the two repositories only have to agree on a path. That removes the whole class of problem where a page could only be reached from one of the two trees. The open-source site went from twenty-four dangling Enterprise links to one, and that one points at the dataset pages the build repository owns. Ports four changes that landed on the docs repository after this branch left it: #344 indexing and quantization rewritten #354 LeRobot native reader #361 training/index renamed to training/data-loading and rewritten #362 distance metric mismatch falls back to a brute-force scan None applied as patches, because these files were merged or split here -- quantization into the vector index page, multi-vector into vector search, performance into four pages. Each was ported by taking the upstream page and re-applying the restructure on top, which also picked up a correction that would otherwise have been lost: the stricter brute-force threshold for multi-vector columns is a Cloud limit, not an Enterprise one. The upstream LeRobot page linked to a Geneva page that no longer exists; it now points at the feature-engineering pages that replaced it.

This page describes a LanceDB Enterprise capability. The embedded form
|
|
of LanceDB has no server to provide it -- see
|
|
[Architecture](/architecture) for what differs between the two.
|
|
|
|
A deployment authenticates every request before
|
|
[authorization](/governance/authorization) decides what it may do.
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
db = lancedb.connect("db://my-database", api_key="...", region="us-east-1")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
An API key belongs in the environment rather than in source. See
|
|
[Database](/management/database#deployment) for the connection options.
|
|
|
|
Embedded LanceDB has nothing to authenticate to -- your process opens the files
|
|
directly, and the object store's own credentials are the only gate.
