IndexSpec

The spec object defines how the index should be deployed. For serverless indexes, you define only the [cloud and region](http://docs.pinecone.io/guides/index-data/create-an-index#cloud-regions) where the index should be hosted. For pod-based indexes, you define the [environment](http://docs.pinecone.io/guides/indexes/pods/understanding-pod-based-indexes#pod-environments) where the index should be hosted, the [pod type and size](http://docs.pinecone.io/guides/indexes/pods/understanding-pod-based-indexes#pod-types) to use, and other index characteristics.
