-// **************************
-// The idea here is to provide a layer of abstraction between the database and whoever is using it.
-// Instead of directly calling mongoose methods, we can call the methods on the DB object.
-// If this were Typescript or Java or Golang an interface would be implemented to ensure the methods are available.
-// But we do the best we can with Javascript.
-//
-// If the methods are consistent all we have to do to swap out one DB for another is simply change the import.
-//
-// Example:
-// We start with the fake DB:
-//
-// const db = require("../db/FakeDb");
-// const monitors = await db.getAllMonitors();
-//
-// And when we want to swtich to a real DB, all we have to do is swap the import
-//
-// const db = require("../db/MongoDb");
-// const monitors = await db.getAllMonitors();
-//
-// The rest of the code is the same, as all the `db` methods are standardized.
