# We need to ensure that we operate on a well-known TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL
# However, the default isolation level is different for MySQL and PostgreSQL and it is also
# possible (at least for MySQL) to globally override the default for your DBMS installation.
# Therefore we want to ensure that the isolation level is consistent on a session basis.
# We chose READ COMMITTED as our expected default isolation level, this is the default of
# PostgreSQL.
