The Rust ecosystem is growing slow and steady into the cloud native landscape. While some projects like youki completely set on the memory safe programming language, do others like CRI-O try to integrate it only partially into their projects. The overall goal of using Rust over anything else is to achieve a more performant, efficient and reliable software.

In this lightning talk, Sascha will outline the benefits and drawbacks of using Rust over the more commonly used Go language in the cloud native space. It will provide funky examples of how to switch between those languages, what are good and bad practices and how to deliver a Rust application to end users. The talk will provide an overview about which parts of the cloud native landscape are already Rusty and what we can expect in the upcoming years.

Join this lightning talk for a quick and compact cloud native comparison between Rust’s Ferris the crab and Go’s Gopher!
