# Advanced guides

- [Custom video source](https://docs.degirum.com/hailo/advanced-guides/custom-video-source.md): Plug custom video sources into PySDK using predict\_batch—ideal for cameras, SDKs, GStreamer, and advanced use cases needing per-frame control or metadata.
- [AI Server](https://docs.degirum.com/hailo/advanced-guides/ai-server.md): Learn how to use the DeGirum AI Server to efficiently host your hardware with local or cloud models.
- [Inference with cloud models](https://docs.degirum.com/hailo/advanced-guides/ai-server/ai-server-inference-with-cloud-models.md): Run inference on a local AI server while fetching models from DeGirum’s public cloud zoo—ideal for hybrid setups where compute is local, but model access is remote.
- [Inference with local models](https://docs.degirum.com/hailo/advanced-guides/ai-server/ai-server-inference-with-local-models.md): Learn how to run inference using locally stored models on a DeGirum AI Server, whether the server runs on the same machine as the client or remotely over the network.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.degirum.com/hailo/advanced-guides.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
