If you know Clojure and AWS I really don’t think it is poorly communicated. There’s a limit to that idiom of simplicity and understanding being correlated.

This was a walk through of the mechanics. The TL;DR is if you are comfortable enough in AWS and Clojure implementing your system in a scalable and simple and wholistic way just got a bunch more accessibile.

I've written a clojure app, used aws and lambda functions and skimming this I really wasn't sure wtf they were talking about. Datomic... Something something lambda functions, deployment. I know that they have an existing ami that uses a cloudformation template to let you set up a datomic server on AWS, this is something similar maybe? I think I could get it if I read in detail but this is definitely poorly communicated, it reads like old Microsoft enterprise sales copy.
