Those that do, are you excited about REBL? (If so, why?)
How do they like Datomic in 2023?
Do they miss regular RDMS like MySql and Postgres?
(Came to the comments hoping there would be more comments on Datomic, REBL, etc.
But it just turned into a flame war between Python and Clojure of all things.
Why would a company corner itself with a very niche, closed source database (and performance nightmare with its own query language you can't use anywhere), attached to one programming language when today the open source ecosystem of databases and cloud databases has so many good options and solutions?
Can't Datomic be used with any JVM language? Sure, it's a Clojure-first database (note that Mongo is a JS-first DB), but a major selling point of Clojure is you can use it with Java/Kotlin/etc.
Not that many, actually, if you want your database to be distributed (in any way). Even fewer if you want it to not lose your data. Plus the really good options (FoundationDB) are not "popular". As Barbie once said, "math is hard".
