Exploring Rust API Use Cases: Performance, Safety, and Scalability
Gabriella Burns
Join our introductory talk on Rust for API development, the first in a four-part series exploring Rust's use cases in API development. We'll cover how Rust's performance, safety, and scalability make it ideal for APIs. Through real-world examples, we will showcase how companies and developers leverage Rust to overcome common challenges in API development, including handling high traffic loads, ensuring data integrity, and minimizing latency. Whether you're a seasoned Rustacean or new to the language, this talk will provide valuable insights into how Rust can elevate your API projects. This session is the first of four interactive workshops that build upon each other, culminating in a final workshop where attendees will build their own API in Rust.
