It seems Rich (yes and the team at cognitect) might have jumped the shark on this one. (Or this was released too early and the next conf. talk will clear up what the problem is and what it is that this is attempting to solve). Either way it's rare for Rich not to describe to problem a little more before throwing a solution to it. Hopefully more will come to light in time. The brief take away I see from this as a non AWS deployment based user is the ability to go beyond the current limitations of only having access to core library functions in the context of datomic. (I see that deployment of applications also plays a part in this but not sure what that solves exactly)
