datomic
@val_waeselynck Hi Valentin, I just finished reading your very interresting post "Using Datomic in your app: a practical guide" https://vvvvalvalval.github.io/posts/2016-07-24-datomic-web-app-a-practical-guide.html I would like to know, 4 years later, what would be the points that have changed the most?
Is it just me, or does everyone think of John McCarthy’s http://www-formal.stanford.edu/jmc/elephant/elephant.html when they contemplate Datomic?
@admin055 nothing much has changed really. Datofu has been added to automate some common tasks such as schema declaration and migrations: https://github.com/vvvvalvalval/datofu Some frameworks now make Datomic a bit more battery-included, such as Fulcro or Hodur. I've used neither.
It may be just you @hiskennyness -- I'd never heard of Elephant 2000 until you mentioned it. Looking at the syntax, Elephant reminds me more of Prolog than Datalog but I guess that's where the connection comes in?
“It may be just you”. It happens, @seancorfield.The connection I see is “An elephant never forgets!“, ie the possibility of painlessly referring to the past. Fun note: I actually remembered E2K as a DB proposal!
Ah, yes, gotcha!

New Datomic Cloud Release ^
@val_waeselynck Perfect, thanks. This is clearly one of the strength of Clojure. (y) Another thanks for the Datofu link, I was just telling myself that the schema declaration had perhaps evolved.
From my AWS EBS application, I’m failing to make a simple datomic.client.api/client call to a Datomic Cloud Solo topology.
Details here. Am I missing something?

Ok, got past this. Now getting the error.
