14 An Introduction to Clojure and Functional Programming
Riemann is configured using a Clojure-based configuration file. This means your configuration file is actually processed as a Clojure program. So, to process events and send notifications and metrics, you’ll be writing Clojure. Don’t panic! You won’t need to become a full-fledged Clojure developer to use Riemann. We’ll teach you what you need to know in order to use Riemann. Additionally, Riemann comes with a lot of helpers and shortcuts that make it easier to write Clojure to do what we need to process our events.
Let’s learn a bit more about Clojure and help you get started with Riemann. Clojure is a dynamic programming language that targets the Java Virtual Machine. It’s a dialect of ...
