i’m very grateful to rich for clojure, cognitect’s libraries/tooling, and datomic. all of these have been well maintained, stable, and backwards compatible over the years.
although he’s no longer working on datomic, i really hope cognitect values growing it. it feels like such an improvement over sql to work with.
Could not disagree more strongly that Datomic is well maintained. I'd view it as a significant liability in any organization using it without very good reason. My experience operationally supporting Datomic at even a moderate scale was a total nightmare and soured me on the Clojure ecosystem as a whole.
may i ask what you consider moderate scale in terms of daily/concurrent users? i’ve had no issue with small projects, but i’m curious to know where it starts falling over
