Rust in Production

Systems Software Engineer Folkert de Vries from Tweede Golf discusses reimplementing NTP in Rust, benefits of Rust over Haskell and C++, bridging tech and business with Rust, enhancing internet security with open-source work, establishing project structure and preventing errors in Rust programming, architecture exploration, Tokyo ecosystem benefits, NTP synchronization with Rust, and focusing on compile time performance

Micah Wylde from Arroyo discusses their real-time data processing engine using Rust, enabling SQL queries on streaming data. They explore Rust's benefits in performance, memory safety, Tokyo framework usage, and challenges in Rust engineering. The episode delves into the future of Rust ecosystem, interaction with other languages, limitations, and industry perceptions.

GraphQL is at the core of companies like GitHub, trivago, and Facebook. In this episode, Nicolas, a staff software engineer at Apollo GraphQL, discusses the company's products and how they use Rust in the core of their GraphQL engine: the Apollo router.

PubNub's CTO discusses scaling their messaging network with Rust for low-latency signal delivery, overcoming memory leaks in C, and the benefits of Rust in improving memory usage and performance. The podcast explores language choices, memory management challenges, and the trade-offs of using Rust for system development.

Paul Dix, the CTO of InfluxData, discusses the inception of InfluxDB, a powerful open-source time series database. He shares the challenges faced in early development and the pivotal shift from Scala to Go. Dix highlights the advantages of transitioning to Rust, including enhanced performance and error handling. He elaborates on the significant upgrades from InfluxDB version 1.0 to 2.0, along with strategies for managing high data volumes. The importance of community contributions and ongoing learning in Rust completes this insightful conversation.

There are a lot of awesome podcasts about Rust. We loved listening to New Rustacean (https://newrustacean.com/) and are excited about the new Rustacean Station (https://rustacean-station.org/) and RustShip (https://www.marcoieni.com/2023/08/rustship-a-new-rust-podcast/) episodes. But we felt that there is a gap in the Rust podcast landscape: We wanted to hear more about how companies use Rust in production. So we decided to sit down and create the content we wanted to listen to. We interviewed people from companies that use Rust in production and asked them the tough questions that you want to hear answered but never get the chance to ask: Why did they choose Rust?What are the real challenges of using Rust in production?How did your team get up to speed with Rust?Did you notice any performance improvements?These and other questions are top of mind for developers and decision makers who are considering Rust for their next project. We want to help them understand the benefits and challenges of using Rust in production before they head down that path. And we're starting with a bang: In the first episode we will talk to Paul Dix, founder and CTO of InfluxData (https://www.influxdata.com/), about how the company rewrote the core of their time series database in Rust. Stay tuned! We will release the first episode on Thursday, December 14th and then biweekly episodes every Thursday.
