Which databases are you currently using that are written in Elixir?

Of course, I meant Erlang; these things (Riak, CouchDB, RabbitMQ) always end up getting written in Erlang.

(Though I don’t think there’s been a new major infra component project started since Elixir became a viable contender, so maybe that could change.)

I didn't realize those were written in Erlang! Similarly, on the clojure side, Datomic and Crux I think are both written in Java, despite generally being consumed by clojurey interfaces.

Crux is definitely written in Clojure and Hickey has said Datomic is written in Clojure in the past.
