# Vector Indexing and Vector Search With Lance

Lance provides high-performance vector search capabilities with ANN (Approximate Nearest Neighbor) indexes.
Lance provides high-performance vector search capabilities with ANN (Approximate Nearest Neighbor) indices.

By the end of this tutorial, you'll be able to build and use ANN indexes to dramatically speed up vector search operations while maintaining high accuracy. You'll also learn how to tune search parameters for optimal performance and combine vector search with metadata queries in a single operation.
