 == Infinite Streams with Tailable Cursors
 
-By default, MongoDB will automatically close a cursor when the client has exhausted all results in the cursor. Closing a cursors turns a Stream into a finite stream. However, for capped collections you may use a https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/core/tailable-cursors/[Tailable Cursor] that remains open after the client exhausts the results in the initial cursor. Using tailable Cursors with a reactive approach allows construction of infinite streams. A tailable Cursor remains open until it's closed. It emits data as data arrives in a capped collection. Using Tailable Cursors with Collections is not possible as its result would never complete.

-Spring Data MongoDB Reactive Repository support supports infinite streams by annotating a query method with `@TailableCursor`. This works for methods returning `Flux` or `Observable` wrapper types.
+Tailable cursors may become dead, or invalid, if either the query returns no match or the cursor returns the document at the "end" of the collection and then the application deletes that document.
