[Data Grid] Support Server-side grouping

[sgalkin-waverleysoftware]

I'm in the process of evaluating data grid libraries for my project and narrowed my choice: to two competitors:

• MUI X premium data grid.
• AG Grid.

The project heavily requires Server-side grouping (SSG), I was trying to figure out on my own if MUI Data Grid supports SSG, but I need help finding related information.

@sgalkin-waverleysoftware We are doing a significant push toward better server-side integration #7583. I think @joserodolfofreitas or @cherniavskii could answer you on this one.

Interesting, we recently made an evolution to our pricing so people like you could more easily compare pricing for similar license terms, and offer a simpler migration path from existing AG Grid users.

Hi @sgalkin-waverleysoftware
Currently, the row grouping feature only works on the client side, which means that you have to provide all the rows to the grid in advance before they are grouped.

We are going to support this use case in the future with the server-side data source - see #8179 for more info.

@cherniavskii Thank you for the response do you have an ETA for #8179?

Hi @srgg,
No ETA, but we will work on it in Q3 and Q4
