I wrote a blog post about my experiences running a Hello World app using the Heroku buildpack for Clojure which you can find here:
In addition, since Bluemix natively supports Java apps, you can export a Clojure app as either an uberjar or an uberwar and run it directly on Bluemix that way. So for example, if you create an uberwar of your Clojure webapp then you can push it to Bluemix by doing:
