What is Perspective?

Originally developed for J.P. Morgan's trading business, Perspective is an interactive visualization component for large, real-time datasets. Use it to build reports, dashboards, notebooks and applications. Perspective comes with:

• A fast, memory efficient streaming query engine, written in C++ and compiled to WebAssembly, with read/write/stream support for Apache Arrow.
• A framework-agnostic query configuration UI component, based on Web Components, and a WebWorker and/or WebSocket data engine host for stable interactivity at high frequency.
• A suite of simple, context-aware visualization plugins for some common Javascript libraries such as D3FC and Hypergrid.
• Integration with Jupyterlab, Runtimes for the Browser and Node.js.
