I'm researching how Datomic cloud functionality fits with a user extending or constraining the schema. Simple things like adding attributes is fine. Attribute and entity predicates sound useful. Question about entity predicates... it seems they are designed to reference predicates implemented as code and deployed. Are there ways the predicate could be defined or configured without redeploying (e.g. transacting an s-expr to use as a predicate)?

Good morning. Can someone confirm that I’m correctly understanding the following quality of composite tuple attrs? Let’s say I have a composite tuple attr :thing/foo+bar of two attrs :thing/foo and :thing/bar. Once this attr exists, I can never create a new attr :thing/foo, even if I first rename the existing :thing/foo to something else beforehand, because the original :thing/foo participates in the composite tuple attr under its original name. In practice this seems to be the case--I get a :db.error/cannot-retarget-ident. I’m wondering if there is any workaround here.

For example, maybe I could: 1. rename :thing/foo to :thing/foo-old 2. update the :db/tupleAttrs of :thing/foo+bar from [:thing/foo :thing/bar] to [:thing/foo-old :thing/bar] (is this possible?) 3. add new attr :thing/foo 4. update the :db/tupleAttrs of :thing/foo+bar back to [:thing/foo :thing/bar] But I can’t tell from the documentation if it’s even possible to change the :db/tupleAttrs on an existing attribute.

Hello 👋 Assuming that I have quite a bit of urls i.e. :db.type/uri in Datomic and want to be able to query them, say by host. Is this OK (1) (idiomatic, performance etc.) or should I be “unpacking urls” into attributes (2)?

;; e.g. (1) "query the object"
  '[,,,
    :where
    [(.getHost ?url) ?h]
    [(= "" ?h)]]

  ;; OR e.g. (2) "store expanded", and query `:uri/host`
  {:uri/host "",
   :uri/path "/wiki/Safari_(web_browser)",
   :uri/full-uri
   #object[com.cognitect.transit.impl.URIImpl 0x58ec6b0c ""]}
  

Hello, I have a question about using Datomic Cloud along with https://docs.aws.amazon.com/msk/latest/developerguide/what-is-msk.html. I've https://docs.aws.amazon.com/msk/latest/developerguide/create-cluster.html the Kafka clusters in my Datomic VPC and added them to the subnets. I understand that the bastion just gives access to the Client API if I'm not mistaken. Is there a way to dev locally w/ the created "bootstrap.servers" in MSK? Any additional steps? Or is it not possible? Apologies if I'm missing anything obvious, but any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks.

Under "https://docs.datomic.com/cloud/releases.html#current" there is this bullet point: > Ion libraries (`ion` and `ion-dev`) are available on the https://docs.datomic.com/cloud/ions/ions-reference.html#libraries. The link https://docs.datomic.com/cloud/ions/ions-reference.html#libraries seems to take you to the wrong stop (just the top of the "Ions Reference" page). That doesn't seem like the desired location.
