I&#x27;d <i>really</i> like to know how well that works out at Dropbox. How honest and public do you think they&#x27;d be if major data losses resulted from Rust crapping out on them? I&#x27;m not sure about them but lots of businesses keep such things on the DL.<p>I think it&#x27;s a risky move. I&#x27;d have first deployed existing, native code along with Rust in parallel using the data splitting technique so some is saved with original and some with Rust. Any compiler or library related issues on Rust side would be caught without data loss. I wonder if they did this in alpha stage and how long that lasted.<p>I mean, I love seeing Rust in production and some success stories would be great. It&#x27;s just... wow, that&#x27;s pretty mission critical for what I gather is still a beta-phase tool. I&#x27;d be testing on the middle or front-end layers first given they&#x27;re usually stateless(ish).
