How to implement pagination using skiptoken

How to improve pagination performance using server-side pagination technique, i.e., by using custom SkipTokenHandler.

I am looking to implement server-side pagination to improve the performance and scalability of our API, as we anticipate handling a large amount of data in our requests. I understand that using a custom SkipTokenHandler can help us achieve this goal by allowing us to control the pagination logic on the server-side.

Therefore, I would greatly appreciate it if you could provide me with some information on how to set up and configure a custom SkipTokenHandler for OData-based Web API, as well as any best practices or guidelines that you may have for implementing server-side pagination.
