" summary

Company migrates a small microservice to Clojure on JVM while keeping Java EE elsewhere, drops heavyweight app servers for slimmer Docker images, and adds a simple health-check endpoint that proves production liveness. Builds a Gradle wrapper around Clojure tooling to fit existing CI, reuses JVM monitoring and metrics, and avoids rewriting complex Java EE integrations by implementing tiny adapters or leaving them in Java. The first Clojure service deploys successfully and its health check works.
