Build on AWS with Rust
summary
Claims Rust can eliminate ~70% of memory-safety vulnerabilities, cut memory use up to 95% and save ~50% energy; real runs compare runtimes: four Lambda functions talking to DynamoDB executed 10 million times, a community test runs a function 2.5 billion times showing Rust uses ~25% of memory, Tencent replaces 300 Node.js nodes in a POC. Code uses AWS SDK for Rust, web code uses Axum and serde, build/deploy via cargo lambda; SDK remains dev preview.
