How to use Relativity Server to access a huge database table?

I’m using MSSQL with a database containing a few tables, one of them big and growing every day.
My Delphi client data module mapped all the tables, including that big table.
This table is the data source for a DevExpress Quantum Grid, but despite disabling the controls before opening the table, it takes a long time to open because it is loading all the records.
How can I enable paging?
I don’t remember having that kind of issue in the past.

The DevExpress TcxGrid supports a “server mode” that works for FireDAC and ADO directly connected to a MSSQL, Oracle, and other databases. Obviously, it doesn’t work with Data Abstract.

Do I have to do my own paging using TcxGrid events and WHERE conditions?

Hi,

You can use DASQL
It supports TOP and SKIP so you can get records of big table in small chunks.

example of DA SQL:

SELECT TOP 12 SKIP 13 *
FROM Employees e
ORDER BY e.EmployeeID
