Gluing Clojure Microservices

on YouTube ↗13m

" summary

Gives two small utilities and concrete numbers: easy-rpc makes library functions callable over HTTP by replacing local calls with a client RPC call and a one-liner server start (config: namespace, protocol, url, port); redis-atom implements the Clojure atom API on Redis so cache state is shared safely across services. Example builds a snap microservice and a Redis-backed cache to serve 100,000+ drones; code and libraries are on GitHub and the demo is runnable.
