If you prefer reusing an existing collection, you can create an instance of Qdrant on your own:

## Local mode
|
||||
|
||||
Python client allows you to run the same code in local mode without running the Qdrant server. That's great for testing things
|
||||
out and debugging or if you plan to store just a small amount of vectors. The embeddings might be fully kepy in memory or
|
||||
persisted on disk.
|
||||
|
||||
### In-memory
|
||||
|
||||
For some testing scenarios and quick experiments, you may prefer to keep all the data in memory only, so it gets lost when the
|
||||
client is destroyed - usually at the end of your script/notebook.
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
qdrant = Qdrant.from_documents(
|
||||
docs, embeddings,
|
||||
location=":memory:", # Local mode with in-memory storage only
|
||||
collection_name="my_documents",
|
||||
)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### On-disk storage
|
||||
|
||||
Local mode, without using the Qdrant server, may also store your vectors on disk so they’re persisted between runs.
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
qdrant = Qdrant.from_documents(
|
||||
docs, embeddings,
|
||||
path="/tmp/local_qdrant",
|
||||
collection_name="my_documents",
|
||||
)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### On-premise server deployment
|
||||
|
||||
No matter if you choose to launch Qdrant locally with [a Docker container](/documentation/guides/installation/), or
|
||||
select a Kubernetes deployment with [the official Helm chart](https://github.com/qdrant/qdrant-helm), the way you're
|
||||
going to connect to such an instance will be identical. You'll need to provide a URL pointing to the service.
|
||||
|
||||
```python
|
||||
url = "<---qdrant url here --->"
|
||||
qdrant = Qdrant.from_documents(
|
||||
docs,
|
||||
embeddings,
|
||||
url,
|
||||
prefer_grpc=True,
|
||||
collection_name="my_documents",
|
||||
)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

might also be found in the [LangChain documentation](https://python.langchain.com/en/latest/modules/indexes/vectorstores/examples/qdrant.html).
