"Breaking distributed systems so you don't have to. Jepsen is a Clojure library. A test is a Clojure program which uses the Jepsen library to set up a distributed system, run a bunch of operations against that system, and verify that the history of those operations makes sense. Jepsen has been used to verify everything from eventually-consistent commutative databases to linearizable coordination systems to distributed task schedulers. It can also generate graphs of performance and availability, helping you characterize how a system responds to different faults. See jepsen.io for examples of the sorts of analyses you can carry out with Jepsen."

"Cascalog is a fully-featured data processing and querying library for Clojure or Java. The main use cases for Cascalog are processing "Big Data" on top of Hadoop or doing analysis on your local computer. Cascalog is a replacement for tools like Pig, Hive, and Cascading and operates at a significantly higher level of abstraction than those tools."
