I noticed collection driver was added in Laravel 9, https://laravel.com/docs/9.x/scout#collection-engine.

Differences From Database Engine On first glance, the "database" and "collections" engines are fairly similar. They both interact directly with your database to retrieve search results. However, the collection engine does not utilize full text indexes or LIKE clauses to find matching records. Instead, it pulls all possible records and uses Laravel's Str::is helper to determine if the search string exists within the model attribute values.

The collection engine is the most portable search engine as it works across all relational databases supported by Laravel (including SQLite and SQL Server); however, it is less efficient than Scout's database engine.

Does this work the same way? or does it work in a different way?

Just one more question are where clauses supported here too? https://laravel.com/docs/9.x/scout#where-clauses

Collection driver is designed to be used in production, but Array driver is exclusively dedicated to automated testing, it does not persist any data.

Yes, where clauses should be supported.
