Timeless Data: Learning Datomic's Model of the World

Datomic is a general-purpose database that approaches data differently—treating it as a series of immutable facts, preserving a full history of changes, and separating storage from compute. This hands-on workshop introduces Datomic's core concepts through practical exercises in transactions, Datalog querying, and working with time-based data.

You'll also get a brief introduction to Clojure, the language Datomic is built for, but no prior experience is required. Even if you're new to both Clojure and Datomic, this workshop is a great starting point. Along the way, you'll encounter architectural patterns—like immutability, temporal modeling, and decoupling—that can inform your broader development practice, regardless of the tools you use.

This free workshop is located at SURF Incubator: 999 3rd Ave SUITE 700, Seattle, WA 98104
