My current job (primarily a Java shop on the backend) is the first where I've been able to introduce a little Clojure after years of having it relegated to being my 'side project' language.

Datomic looks neat from a distance, but not being open source means I'm probably not even going to look at it (since I wouldn't be able to use it in any case).

There’s an open source ‘version’ of datomic with a lot of the same features (Datalog, immutability, as-of queries etc) called Crux, I’ve played around with it on side projects and think it’s pretty awesome

Amazing how the world has changed. Not too long ago it was hard to introduce code that wasn't closed source.
