</p>

Python client allows you to run same code in local mode without running Qdrant server.

Simply initialize client like this:

from qdrant_client import QdrantClient
client = QdrantClient(":memory:")
or

client = QdrantClient(path="path/to/db")  # Persists changes to disk

Local mode is useful for development, prototyping and testing.

You can use it to run tests in your CI/CD pipeline.

Run it in Colab or Jupyter Notebook, no extra dependencies required. See an example

When you need to scale, simply switch to server mode.
