[@nishanthdipali6838]

Thanks dude amazing video btw, helped me a lot. I was wondering how to make a db connection in vercel, got it now.

[@vigneshs7367]

awesome

[@jamesthebald]

Good tutorial! I just wish you'd covered how to set up and connect to our own MongoDB database, so junior devs can complete the tutorial. This can be quite fraught.

[@rupakmagar6680]

so u connect to the database everytime a request comes ?

[@viktorbranco8362]

Any idea why I get a null database?

[@hoangnampham7777]

hi James, I wonder if we have many api then every api has to connect to db then it will be very time consuming, is there any way we can connect to db only once and next time will check if not yet connected, just connected

[@jhonjairogarcesmontes1035]

leaving the connection open will cause a timeout on the lambda function, plus he does that at the beginning with the cache DB variable

Thanks for the video. The font size is a little too small.

[@james-perkins]

You welcome!, Thanks for the feedback, all new videos use a larger font size to make it easy to read.
