How can I connect to Datomic after upgrade to 990-9202, the bastion disappeared?

Question

Hi!

After I upgraded Datomic cloud to version 2023/02/28 990-9202 the bastion disappeared in AWS. So now I can't connect to Datomic anymore.

When I try to connect to it with datomic client access <SYSTEM-NAME>

I get this error:

`
{:clojure.main/message
"Execution error at datomic.tools.ops.aws/get-ip (aws.clj:116).\nGateway not found, make sure gateway is running.\n",

What should I do to be able to connect to Datomic again?

I got it working!

You don't need the the socks proxy anymore with the datomic client since the bastion is replaced with an AWS api gateway.

Go to your AWS console and look at the api gatewats

https://eu-central-1.console.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/main/apis

Click on datomic-YOUR-SYSTEM-NAME-client-api

Use the Invoke URL as the value for the endpoint in your configuration when connecting to datomic.

{:server-type :ion

      :region "eu-central-1" ;; e.g. us-east-1
      :system SYSTEM_NAME
      :endpoint  INVOKE_URL}
