Aggregation is awkward. It is not that composable. Sub-queries are not a thing. Prolog conventions make things awkward. The ammount of datatypes seems to be limited.
If you encounter datalog in the wild it will be something pretty-custom, like datomic, pydatalog, or even differential dataflow (that feels more like map-reduce with fix-points?)
- YeGoblynQueenne 8y ago>> Prolog conventions make things awkward. Hey. What do you mean? Which Prolog conventions? (I write a lot of Prolog and I'm always curious what other people think about it).
- a-saleh 8y agoMaybe I haven't used datalog enough, but the convention of lowercase data, uppercase-starting Variable strikes me as limiting.
