# Virtual Servers
|
||||
|
||||
Perspective's Virtual Server feature lets you connect `<perspective-viewer>` to
|
||||
external data sources without loading data into Perspective's built-in engine.
|
||||
Instead, queries are translated and executed natively by the external database.
|
||||
|
||||
For a detailed explanation of how virtual servers work, see the
|
||||
[Virtual Servers](../../explanation/virtual_servers.md) concepts page.
|
||||
|
||||
Perspective ships with built-in virtual server implementations for:
|
||||
|
||||
- [**DuckDB**](./virtual_server/duckdb.md) — query DuckDB databases in-browser
|
||||
via `@duckdb/duckdb-wasm`, or on the server via Node.js.
|
||||
- [**ClickHouse**](./virtual_server/clickhouse.md) — query a ClickHouse server
|
||||
directly from the browser or from Node.js.
|
||||
|
||||
You can also [**implement your own**](./virtual_server/custom.md) virtual server
|
||||
to connect Perspective to any data source by implementing the
|
||||
`VirtualServerHandler` interface.
