  1. 1 Intro
  2. 2 Use Rust to: . ack Transport Layer Security (TLS) • match performance of implementation
  3. 3 Rust Storage in Pelikan: 2018 Engineer wants to add storage to Pelikan and write the library in Rust . Used the framework with FFI to use Rust Storage First commit of Rust to Pelikan!
  4. 4 Rust Server in Pelikan: 2019 Engineer wants to use Rust for server code
  5. 5 Prototype • Memcached protocol compatible • wrapped std::collections:: HashMapas temporary storage benchmarking looked good • next step: FFI for storage library
  6. 6 Rewrite Benefits new storage design • added new ideas to storage library helped make it more production ready
  7. 7 empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software • high performance • code with confidence in reliability awesome language features and tools zero cost abstraction
  8. 8 microbenchmarking of critical components cargo fuzz easy to add fuzz testing for protocol library
  9. 9 Next Steps Path to Production • feature complete . more testing • production canary • deployment
  10. 10 Rewriting has costs and benefits Costs • Extra time would have • Easier to work with an all caused missed deadlines Rust codebase Duplicating work that's • No more cmake!!! been paid for
  11. 11 Cand Rust are both very fast Profiling and benchmarking helped get us match the performance of the implementation
