Efficient Pagination with OFFSET and LIMIT
Learn to implement efficient pagination in SQL queries using OFFSET and LIMIT clauses to retrieve specific subsets of data for web applications.
SELECT id, name, created_at FROM products ORDER BY created_at DESC LIMIT 10 OFFSET 20;
How it works: This query retrieves 10 records from the `products` table, starting after the first 20 records. It's crucial for paginating results on a website. `LIMIT` specifies the maximum number of rows to return, and `OFFSET` specifies the number of rows to skip before starting to return rows.
