Description

Team,

I just wanted to know how the query filter works in OData. I have 10 rows in my table and I have given a filter condition. As per my observation, it is fetching the 10 rows at the service end and filter the data matching with the filter condition specified in the url and returning the records. Is my observation correct? In case if my observation is correct, what if we have 1 million rows in a table. Does it fetch all rows at the service end and apply filter condition. Please let me know if I am wrong.
