Don't Shed a Tier for Me, Clojure
summary
An open‑source tool called Plugh implements log and tweet analysis in Clojure, running on a Riak cluster and in the browser by compiling logic via ClojureScript; it wires computation across core.async channels so the same logic runs on server and client. Demo processes about ten minutes of Twitter with a 5,000‑word lexicon to compute counts, sums and rolling averages; Riak map/reduce with JavaScript callbacks fails for async today but a working Riak demo is planned by year end.
