  just for your one example, it seems pretty clear from the discussion that the datalog planner here making the cut across the network connection specifically to minimize data motion. certainly people can build bad things. there is however a very real likelihood that a programming model which includes distribution will turn out to be effective

  (speaker here) Photon is not an object mapper, we do not have an N+1 problem and in fact that is the exact topic of this talk. Photon is designed to scale in complexity without loss of performance or ability to reason. The computational structure that achieves this is single directional dataflow with pure functions; the abstraction is “referentially transparent” which means it composes mathematically the way pure functions compose. Strong composition as a basis for abstraction scalability (in the domain of UI) is the core innovation here.
