this search functionality is implemented using MongoDB Atlas search. Where mongoDB created an index to the items present in the collection. And then that helped implementing the search functionality.

Fin

This was the first time when I used all the tools provided by MongoDB. Initially it took me a while to understand all the tools like Triggers, Functions etc. But as soon as i implemented the first one. It was a game changer, Then i realised that it can help in so much of database automation. For example, In this project I used a trigger which was looking for an insertion event on orders collection. As soon as there were insertions on the collection It would run a function which would reduce the quantity of the things which were purchased from the available quantity. And another was to email the receipt as soon as there is a new order. This would reduce a good amount of work on the middleware part. And can be handled more precisely as it has direct contact with the data on MongoDB Realm.
