Writing Network Drivers in Rust [pdf]
Per a talk from Joshua Liebow-Feeser at the Rust Belt Rust 2018 conference, Google is heavily using Rust for networking in their new Fuchsia operating system.<p>This is a rough approximation of a quote he gave during the talk:<p>"What makes Rust different is not that you can write high-performance, bare-metal code. People use C and C++ to do that all the time. What makes Rust different is that when you write that code, it is safe, clean, and easy to use, and you are confident in its correctness."<p>If even Google is using Rust for performance-critical development, that seems pretty promising to me.
