Pagination With MongoDB
Like any developer , I had an idea to use Limits, Skips, and Sorts query mechanism to achieve pagination. But on long run if document is going to have more than few thousand records , then it is not a good practices to use Limits, Skips, and Sorts. As Limits, Skips, and Sorts reduces the performance on large scale documents
The solution uses MongoDB $push and $slice instead. But it also requires always knowing the total number of items in the list.
