                Our second application only reads from the store. In this
                case, the store should be opened as read-only.
            </p>
      <p>
                We perform these activities by creating a single class that
                is responsible for opening and closing our store and
                environment. This class is shared by both our applications.
                To use it, callers need to only provide the path to the
                environment home directory
