on that note, anybody using Clojure to do devops?

we do, we use it both to generate YAML pipelines and in tasks running in those pipelines, to do configuration management on virtual machines (we have a lot of stuff where ansible wasn’t good enough and a general purpose language was easier to work with) and a number of internal tools

both babashka (including nbb) and regular jvm clojure

I think the data orientation of clojure works well with modern devops tools as they usually emit or consume json or yaml data

Ok. Thank you for the helpful info!
