# Datomic on global

**Good** reasons for and against it

---

When creating a new service...

---

```clojure
(defn prototype->database
  [prototype]
  (if (= :global prototype)
    :datomic
    #{:dynamodb :redis :nothing}))
```

---

...which is, in my opinion, a poor heuristic.

---

notifications vs toasty

jurassic-park vs auth

blackleach -> diablo -> ledger

---

## Thank you!
