Rust and AWS Lambda seem like the perfect fit. Micro-sized virtual machines and a highly-performant systems language that has a proven track record of delivering a quality developer experience. So why hasn't more adoption occurred?
In this talk I will bring together these two ecosystems to show that you can have highly available and scalable compute with Lambda while maximizing performance and resource consumption with Rust and the AWS Lambda Runtime. Come learn how to take advantage of Rust with the AWS Serverless Application Model and explore a multiple binary and shared library Cargo Workspace.
By the end of this talk, you'll walk away with practical options for building your next Lambda Function in Rust that will turbocharge your feature delivery and user's experience.
