Why does Datomic Console require the URI to the transactor, rather than requiring the URI to the database where it can fetch the transactor's location from, like a Peer would? Finally got Datomic Console to work by directly connecting to storage rather than the transactor — despite the documentation saying the opposite.

Hi. I have idea to hold marketplace data in datomic. Each item is quite unique and can be resell a lot of times (it sounds like a perfect fit for datomic). In the future it will be fully opensource. Would datomic be a good choice? and is it possible to use free version for that? I have to save all data on disc (free version is memory use only? )

Hi 🙂 datomic cloud has solo/production, are there any pitfalls if I change the instance types ? Ex: production config but with t2.small

@claudiu You can’t run production with smaller instances

the architecture is designed around certain aspects of the instanes

instances*

for instance, Valcache on the local NVMe SSDs

Is there any solution to have solo instances but with a load balancer ? 🙂 (no downtime on deploy and to work with without aws lambdas when the feature is released)

no, HA / no-downtime-deploy is a feature of production

oky, So it's solo or production no in between ? Solo should be just fine, but still need to find out what's the SLA for the project.

a dull question: does Datomic Free have any limitations when working with in-memory databases? I’ve got a special case when I need a memory-only database. So would it be enough to link just Datomic Free but not the paid version?

The link to https://github.com/ComputeSoftware/datomic-client-memdb was new to me, thanks. Is there something similar that can abstract differences from datascript and datomic?

What are those differences?

Different deps

at the very least

Can I pass a query result into another query as a data source?

igrishaev: Yes. (In fact, I've passed all sorts of neat things as a data source.)

Hi, I’m new to datomic. Given a situation where “I have store called Auchan”, it gets renamed “Carrefour Market”. Is there a way in datomic to express “find me any store that is called Auchan or has been called Auchan at any point of time” ? Does my question make sense ?
