Ask HN: Who's using Clojure in production?

#1
Who's using Clojure in production today and what are you using it for? I'm curious about the state of the ecosystem and its adoption today.

There are a lot of old threads (on HN[1] or Quora[2]) that ask this - but none of them seem to reflect latest on who's using Clojure in production in late 2014. The recent State of Clojure data [3] doesn't capture this either.

paper.li is almost fully clojure. exoscale.ch runs critical infrastructure on clojure.

walmart labs has been mentioned, the climate corporation (recently bought by monsanto) is another well-known one.

Here in Switzerland I can count 4 others smaller companies and at least a very big telco.

If you start counting every company relying on riemann for production monitoring that adds quite a few :-)
