6. MongoDB is one type of nosql databases. In MongoDB, a write operation is atomic on the level of a single document, even if the operation modifies multiple embedded documents within a single document. When a single write operation modifies multiple documents, the modification of each document is atomic, but the operation as a whole is not atomic and other operations may interleave. Since a single document can contain multiple embedded documents, single-document atomicity is sufficient for many practical use cases. For cases where a sequence of write operations must operate as if in a single transaction, you can implement a two-phase commit (2PC) in some application. Describe how this 2PC works.
7. Describe the similarity and difference between relational database like mysql and graphic database like Neo4J.
