Brendan Clement 198812fd53 docs: clean up prose flagged by the shared Vale rules (#4596)
The existing docs have 254 findings from our shared Vale rules.
Contributors would otherwise inherit these when editing the same lines.

Clean up the prose across 80 pages: correct product names and a repeated
word, simplify a few phrases, and replace dashes with punctuation that
fits each sentence. The pinned Vale scan now reports zero findings, with
no suppressions.

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.
LanceDB Enterprise runs the lakehouse as a service: a control plane for
configuration, identity and policy; a data plane serving reads and writes; and
indexers building indexes and compacting outside the request path.
What it adds over the embedded form:
| | |
| --- | --- |
| [SQL](/sql) | an Arrow Flight SQL endpoint |
| [Jobs](/basics/jobs) | server-side work with ids, status and events |
| [Authorization](/governance/authorization) | per-object grants |
| Scale | a cluster rather than your process |
{/*
Draft for the Functions release. Add this row to the table above, after SQL:
| [Functions](/management/function) | Python running on workers |
*/}
See [Architecture](/architecture) for the two shapes side by side.
