- Database names are case-sensitive in MongoDB. They also have an
40
- additional restriction, case cannot be the only difference between
41
- database names.
39
+ Do not rely on case to distinguish between databases. For example,
40
+ you cannot use two databases with names like, ``salesData`` and
41

+ After you create a database in MongoDB, you must use consistent
44
