Server-side processing effective filtering

ddess

Hello, I have 2 questions.

I'm using datatable server-side processing with scrolling for load data fast with json. (https://datatables.net/extensions/scroller/examples/initialisation/server-side_processing.html)

1-Is that the best way for show huge datasets?
2-I want to filtering this datatable, I couldn't find a good example.

I'm new at using datatable, I loved it but I need basic and explaining examples.

Thanks for help.

It is if you want a scrolling table with server-side processing! I suspect most people use it without Scroller, and just use paging.

2-I want to filtering this datatable, I couldn't find a good example.

If you have enabled serverSide, then the server does all the filtering - see examples here.

Cheers,

Colin

Can you share a good paging example with server side processing? I'm filtering external and than bind the datatable with server side processing, I can use paging without server side, but I cannot find a good example with server side. Thanks for your help.

There's several examples here - the tabs shows the JSON and the server-side script.
