There are always two sides to this... I think it’s badly communicated. Someone said (I don’t find the quote), that if you can’t explain a complex topic in simple words, you haven’t understood it thoroughly.
- cube2222 8y agoEinstein said this, but he also said: Everything Should Be Made as Simple as Possible, But Not Simpler.
- VaedaStrike 8y agoIf you know Clojure and AWS I really don’t think it is poorly communicated. There’s a limit to that idiom of simplicity and understanding being correlated. This was a walk through of the mechanics. The TL;DR is if you are comfortable enough in AWS and Clojure implementing your system in a scalable and simple and wholistic way just got a bunch more accessibile.
- zimablue 8y agoI've written a clojure app, used aws and lambda functions and skimming this I really wasn't sure wtf they were talking about. Datomic... Something something lambda functions, deployment. I know that they have an existing ami that uses a cloudformation template to let you set up a datomic server on AWS, this is something similar maybe? I think I could get it if I read in detail but this is definitely poorly communicated, it reads like old Microsoft enterprise sales copy.
