It is recommended to initiate the DB connection in the getServerSideProps() function, which runs on the server-side every time a page is requested. This ensures that the database connection is established only when necessary and is closed after the data has been fetched, which improves performance and scalability. Additionally, connecting to the database as early as possible allows you to handle any connection errors before the page is rendered.
