This session will explore four common problems, and the unique and surprising tools Datomic provides to solve them elegantly:
HTTP caching - How to generically generate and validate Last-Modified and If-Modified-Since headers
Audit trail - how to extend Datomic’s immutable transaction log to include arbitrary audit related metadata
Mobile database sync - trivial implementation of an incremental update API for high latency/low bandwidth clients
Authorization - easily determine resource ownership, and centrally isolate users from data they are not allowed to see
These problems have certainly been solved before using other databases, but Datomic provides features that make the proposed implementations concise, generic, and purely functional.
