Indeterminate: where there are no intermediate states. As long as the process is running the progress bar grows continuously from 0% to 100%. Use it for system processes.

Determinate: where there are intermediate states in the completion process. Used to show the user where is inside a process divided in steps. Use it for user processes.

Variations

Progress bar

This is an indeterminate progress bar. This progress bar can be used with or without label. If you foresee this pattern will be used in a process that can take long time to be completed, a label can be useful to the user. But there is not always the need to show the completion percentage.
