+## SQL dialect
+
+Aurora DSQL is PostgreSQL wire-compatible but adds dialect-specific DDL that vanilla Postgres rejects.
+LocalStack accepts the DSQL-specific statements that applications commonly rely on so DSQL-targeted apps can run against the emulator.
+
+### Asynchronous indexes
+
+On real Aurora DSQL, [`CREATE INDEX ASYNC`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/aurora-dsql/latest/userguide/working-with-create-index-async.html) (and `CREATE UNIQUE INDEX ASYNC`) submits a background index build, returns a `job_id` immediately, and records the job in the [`sys.jobs`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/aurora-dsql/latest/userguide/working-with-systems-tables.html) system view for the application to poll.
+
+LocalStack accepts the same syntax.
+The index is built synchronously under the hood; the observable result matches AWS: a `job_id` is returned, the index exists afterwards, and `sys.jobs` reports the job as `completed` with `job_type` `INDEX_BUILD`.
+
+Connect to the cluster as shown in [Connect to the cluster](#connect-to-the-cluster), then run:
+
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE departments (name varchar(255) PRIMARY KEY, manager varchar(255));
+INSERT INTO departments (name, manager) VALUES ('HR', 'John Doe');
+
+CREATE INDEX ASYNC idx_dept_name_manager ON departments (name, manager);
+```
+
+```bash title="Output"
+                job_id
+------------------------------------
+ a1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8i9j0k1l2m3
+(1 row)
+```
+
+Query `sys.jobs` to inspect the job, or call `sys.wait_for_job` to wait until it reports completion:
+
+```sql
+SELECT job_id, status, job_type, object_name FROM sys.jobs;
+SELECT sys.wait_for_job('a1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8i9j0k1l2m3');
+```
+
+```bash title="Output"
+              job_id              |  status   |  job_type   |     object_name
+----------------------------------+-----------+-------------+---------------------
+ a1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8i9j0k1l2m3       | completed | INDEX_BUILD | idx_dept_name_manager
+(1 row)
+
+ wait_for_job
+--------------
+ t
+(1 row)
+```
+
+`CREATE UNIQUE INDEX ASYNC` works the same way and enforces uniqueness once the index exists:
+
+```sql
+CREATE UNIQUE INDEX ASYNC uidx_dept_manager ON departments (manager);
+```
+
+:::note
+Index builds run synchronously under the hood.
+Async timing (background processing, `submitted`/`processing` statuses) and the AWS 30-minute auto-cleanup of completed or failed jobs from `sys.jobs` are not modelled.

 ## Current Limitations
 
 - CloudFormation is not yet supported for Aurora DSQL resources.
 - The data plane is backed by a standard embedded PostgreSQL instance rather than the real Aurora DSQL distributed engine.
-  DSQL-specific SQL dialect restrictions are not enforced, so behaviour may differ from AWS for unsupported statements.
+- LocalStack accepts DSQL-specific `CREATE [UNIQUE] INDEX ASYNC` and exposes `sys.jobs` / `sys.wait_for_job`, but broader DSQL dialect restrictions (for example rejecting foreign keys or `TRUNCATE`) are not enforced, so behaviour may differ from AWS for unsupported statements.
+- Asynchronous index builds complete synchronously; timing semantics and automatic cleanup of old `sys.jobs` rows are not modelled.
 - Multi-region clusters are tracked at the control-plane level only.
   Peering metadata is recorded, but there is no real cross-region replication.
 - Data-plane data is not persisted yet. Cluster metadata survives restarts when persistence is enabled, but the data written through the embedded PostgreSQL backend (tables, rows) is not retained.
