On 23 July 2022, Rootconf held a Birds of Feather discussion on whether Rust language is ready for adoption in enteprises at India FOSS 2.0 conference. The discussion showed that the question must be inverted - are Indian startups and enteprises ready for adopting Rust language? This Mini Conference will look at the following problem statements:
- “We want to build with Rust, what do we need to know” - for businesses and developers who will want to use Rust to develop solutions for specific use cases, what should they want to be aware of before they commit to this journey?
- “Designing things with Rust language” - exploring components and technical details of Rust language with a focus on building things. For e.g. connected mesh of internet of things, integrating Rust with other languages, monitoring dashboards, search engines, embedded systems, distributed systems and WASM.
- “Wait up! What about security and all the related topics” - evaluating software supply chain security, project stewardship, evolution of the language, tools and documentation, speed/memory related shaping and benchmarking, support for libraries.
- “Where are the Rust language jobs around us” - addressing the topic of growing the community to create a viable and long-term talent pool for businesses to acquire confidence while investing on their Rust language journey.

Using Rust for real-time data processing at Finbox
Submitted Nov 25, 2022
Talk type:
25 min talk
Finbox does credit scoring with Machine Learning (ML) using alternative data. The Finbox team encountered Rust when they tried a simple piece of code with Regex in Rust. The speed and performance achieved with Rust was phenomenal. The team felt that it was worthwhile using Rust for some of the computationally heavy components, especially the ones using regexes extensively, at FinBox.
Now FinBox has two of its components using Rust in production.
In this talk, I will explain the performance gains achieved with running Rust in production. I will also share my team’s learnings with Rust, mainly that “Thou shall not compile regexes in a loop” and more.
