rocklog - the company

rocklog Limited is privately held software company, no venture capital buy-in, we go for the long run and try our best to create supply chain management software that is simple, yet elegant, and always fast. Our SaaS planet rocklog powers supply chains and acts an integration platform for a diverse crowd - so we are boutique. We help those that are seeking for transparent pricing, no trap-ins and whose business model does not fit the mainstream.

our customers

many charity organisations, chemical industries, food industry, service industry, retail

our stack

Clojure on the server-side from top-to-bottom, MongoDB, CouchDB, STM-based database and therefor programming model that kicks ass, Latex, Javascript/Typescript on the client-side, Mithril.js, D3.js, Docker, Multivendor Cloud, CircleCI

we try to stick away from buzzwords - true innovation is rare, we prefer functional thinking and programming, scratching our head twice before introducing dependencies, we struggle and most of the time - we succeed
