To Rust, or not to Rust, that is the question

When it comes to serverless, speed is paramount! I am not just talking about saving a few milliseconds of development time here and there; we're talking about the critical relationship between speed and cost without manual intervention. In today's hyper-connected world, where lightning-fast access to information is vital, those who can leverage this concept at scale will reap the rewards of cheaper cloud costs!

Rust is the key to unlocking the performance of the next generation of serverless applications. In recent years, we have seen the rise of other JS engines, such as Deno or Bun. These engines aim to improve the performance of JavaScript. Deno is implemented in Rust, while Bun is built in Zig. These languages have lower-level control and very good performance as they compile to machine code. However, they contain a lot of APIs and code that isn't needed in a serverless environment.

Meet LLRT - the low-latency runtime built from the ground up with one goal: delivering unbeatable AWS Lambda performance for JavaScript developers. Say goodbye to unnecessary APIs and code - LLRT is explicitly designed for serverless environments, so you can enjoy lightning-fast access to information and reap the rewards of cheaper cloud costs.

Serverless computing requires fast and efficient processing to keep costs low. Rust provides high-performance capabilities for next-generation serverless applications. A new runtime for JavaScript developers called LLRT has been designed explicitly for serverless environments, focusing on low latency. It delivers exceptional AWS Lambda performance by removing any unnecessary APIs or code.
