In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for facilitating dynamically controlled fetching of data at client computing devices in an on-demand services environment in a multi-tenant environment according to one embodiment. In one embodiment and by way of example, a method includes receiving, at a server computing device, a request from a client computing device. The request includes a query for receiving data from a database coupled to the server computing device in an on-demand database system. The method may further include matching the request against a predetermine threshold value, and where the threshold value includes a first predetermined threshold range based on a first column range or a first row range and a second predetermined threshold range based on a second column range or a second row range. The method may further include generating multiple responses to the request based on one or more formulae and the predetermined threshold value if the request fails to satisfy the predetermined threshold value.
