runsyour machine or their cloud
installHosted signup, or Docker Compose/Kubernetes for self-hosting
enginesAI features can use a configured model provider or self-hosted compatible service; standalone community deployment omits AI and App Builder
dataCloud records live in Teable Cloud; self-hosted records live in PostgreSQL, with attachments in local, MinIO, S3, or Aliyun object storage; bases export as .tea backups and tables as CSV
