Clojurians Log v2

i have a question about pack-datomic: should the vm automatically be killed if the transactor process fails? I believe that is the behaviour of the AMI provided with Datomic when you use ensure-transactor.

It appears that this is not the case with pack-datomic, but maybe I'm misconfiguring something

I think we haven't had official endorsement from Cognitect because of that fact

what would be needed to make it so?

I can setup cloudwatch alarms to terminate the instance, but I guess that's not how it works with the official AMI

@stijn you are 100% right - we need to update the AMI for this

I just haven't looked into it

@jonpither or is it enough to update the user data (cloud init)?

and then launch the instance with the 'terminate on shutdown' option

I think you know better than I. I know of the requirement and it's true, but I haven't look into at all

ok, i'll give it a try

amazing 🙂

thanks @stijn
