Clojure vs. Java vs. Oracle Machine Learning vs. Visual Basic Comparison Chart

Clojure is a robust, practical, and fast programming language with a set of useful features that together form a simple, coherent, and powerful tool. Clojure is a dynamic, general-purpose programming language, combining the approachability and interactive development of a scripting language with an efficient and robust infrastructure for multithreaded programming. Clojure is a compiled language, yet remains completely dynamic, every feature supported by Clojure is supported at runtime. Clojure provides easy access to the Java frameworks, with optional type hints and type inference, to ensure that calls to Java can avoid reflection. Clojure is a dialect of Lisp, and shares with Lisp the code-as-data philosophy and a powerful macro system. Clojure is predominantly a functional programming language and features a rich set of immutable, persistent data structures. When a mutable state is needed, Clojure offers a software transactional memory system and reactive Agent system.

Machine learning uncovers hidden patterns and insights in enterprise data, generating new value for the business. Oracle Machine Learning accelerates the creation and deployment of machine learning models for data scientists using reduced data movement, AutoML technology, and simplified deployment. Increase data scientist and developer productivity and reduce their learning curve with familiar open source-based Apache Zeppelin notebook technology. Notebooks support SQL, PL/SQL, Python, and markdown interpreters for Oracle Autonomous Database so users can work with their language of choice when developing models. A no-code user interface supporting AutoML on Autonomous Database to improve both data scientist productivity and non-expert user access to powerful in-database algorithms for classification and regression. Data scientists gain integrated model deployment from the Oracle Machine Learning AutoML User Interface.
