Most recently (over the past couple of years), Rich has been putting his iconoclastic ways to work on data programmability. The result is a new type of database, Datomic. Datomic is a database of flexible, time-based facts, supporting queries and joins, with elastic scalability, and ACID transactions. It is implemented in Clojure.

Here is C9's recording of Rich's most recent talk on a new approach to database design and general purpose programmability. This happened at GOTO Chicago Functional Programming Night, sponsored by Dave Thomas.

You can see Rich and Erik Meijer discussing Clojure and Datomic here.
Read the "Out of the tar pit" paper Rich mentions at the beginning of the talk.


Rich Hickey - The Database as a Value

Abstract:

Proponents of functional programming tout its many benefits, most of which are available only within a particular process, or afforded by a particular programming language feature. Anything outside of that is considered I/O, dangerous and difficult to reason about. But real systems almost always cross process and language boundaries, and most require, crucially, a very gnarly bit of shared state - a database. In this talk we will examine how Datomic renders the database into that most prized and easy-to-reason-about construct, a value, and makes it available to multiple processes in multiple languages, functional and not.

Along the way, we'll discuss the importance of immutability and time in representing information, the reification of process, and the mechanisms of durable persistent data structures. No knowledge of functional programming is required.

Always a pleasure to get a few titans together for a random discussion. Thank you Erik and Rich!

As Erik mentioned in the discussion, Rich has been on C9 before. Welcome back, Rich!

Rich's session from GOTO FP Night -> The Database as a Value.

Erik's session from GOTO FP Night -> Functional Programming from First Principles (Coming soon!).

Thanks to Dave Thomas for hosting C9 at this affair. We're lucky to have such a great supporter!

PS: The GOTO conference is coming to Chicago in 2013. Erik and Rich will be there along with several other great speakers.

It is designed to be a general-purpose language, combining the approachability and interactive development of a scripting language with an efficient and robust infrastructure for multithreaded programming. Clojure is a compiled language - it compiles directly to JVM bytecode, yet remains completely dynamic. Every feature supported by Clojure is supported at runtime. Clojure provides easy access to the Java frameworks, with optional type hints and type inference, to ensure that calls to Java can avoid reflection.

Clojure is a dialect of Lisp, and shares with Lisp the code-as-data philosophy and a powerful macro system. Clojure is predominantly a functional programming language, and features a rich set of immutable, persistent data structures. When mutable state is needed, Clojure offers a software transactional memory system and reactive Agent system that ensure clean, correct, multithreaded designs.

Astrophysicist and Software Architect Brian Beckman interviews Rich Hickey to dig into the details of this very interesting language. If you don't know much about Clojure and the general problems it aims to solve, well, watch and listen carefully to this great conversation with plenty of whiteboarding and outstanding questions. Expert to Expert simply rocks! Thank you for spending time with us, Rich! Clojure is great!

PS: You can donate to the Clojure project should you feel so inclined.
