Rust Linz, March 2021 - Thomas Taylor - The Rusting Cloud

One year ago, my team released Krustlet, a Kubernetes Kubelet implementation for running WASM modules written in Rust. Since then, we've spent plenty of time out on the frontier, implementing full Kubernetes functionality, all in Rust. In this session, we'll cover why we chose Rust and how WASM and Rust work together. Using examples from Krustlet, we'll also review the pros and cons of using Rust for writing software for the cloud and address how it compares to languages like Go.

totally agree, async doesn't look as a native thing for rust right now
