Custom binding and data loading

[Jill-Connie Lorentsen]

I am using custom binding and have followed this documentation http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/aspnet-mvc/helpers/grid/custom-binding

I read the data from a database, I am wondering if there is a way NOT to do this every time the user goes to a new page, changes the sorting, filtering, page size etc?

I've tried setting virtual scrolling = true, without any luck.

Hello Jill-Connie,

In order operations such as paging, sorting, filtering etc. to be handled on the server-side, every time event such as changing the paging, sorting by a field etc. occur an request to the server will be made in order the operation to be handled. If you wish to DataSource to handle the operations in-memory on the client-side, you could set the ServerOperation DataSource setting to false. However, you should be aware that in this case the built-in logic of the DataSource will kick-in and you will not be able to use custom binding.
