A Observable represents a MongoDB operation. 
 As such it is a provider of a potentially unbounded number of sequenced elements, publishing them according to the demand received from its Observer(s). 
Type parameters:
<TResult> – the type of element signaled.

Request Observable to start streaming data. 
This is a "factory method" and can be called multiple times, each time starting a new Subscription.
Each Subscription will work for only a single Observer.
 If the Observable rejects the subscription attempt or otherwise fails it will signal the error via Observer.onError.
