# Datomic

> Datomic is a free database designed for distributed systems with an epochal state model, immutable data, flexible schema, Datalog queries over present or past state, and ACID transactions.

Datomic treats data as immutable facts (datoms) accreted over time, enabling powerful historical queries, auditing, and reproducibility. It runs on the JVM and supports both on-prem and AWS Cloud deployments.
