Rust VS quiche

This repo could suit your needs TheAlgorithms

39. The Algorithms Rust git repo offers code examples for many essential standard algorithms for data structures, sorting, and strings, among many others. This is a very good resource if you are trying to practice for job interviews.

Oh, i didn't implement convex hull algorithm. And that was a random file i opened from the Rust-Algorithms repo, I contributed with some algos few months back!

Edit: forgot the link. Here it is https://github.com/TheAlgorithms/Rust

Yeah, I also only looked at one of them (https://github.com/TheAlgorithms/Rust/blob/master/src/string/aho_corasick.rs) and was left with the same impression.

First one I checked was `two_sum.rs` and it uses a `HashMap`: https://github.com/TheAlgorithms/Rust/blob/master/src/genera...

Surely the best way is to sort the numbers and then walk from both ends?

Nice work anyway!

The title of this post puts emphasis on "written in C", making me wonder when this would ever be a desirable feature, given that more secure implementations are available, and can be integrated into old C projects just as easily.

No need to rewrite everything from the ground up: https://github.com/cloudflare/quiche#curl

The issue is dead silent too!

Even though Oxy is a proprietary project, we try to give back some love to the open-source community without which the project wouldn’t be possible by open-sourcing some of the building blocks such as https://github.com/cloudflare/boring and https://github.com/cloudflare/quiche.

They’ve been on the Rust train since at least 2019. Just look at projects like quiche, wrangler, and boringtun

It's more like Cloudflare forked nginx a long time ago, and is meanwhile in the very slow (like, decade-long) process of replacing it entirely.

The Cloudflare Workers Runtime, for instance, is built directly around V8; it does not use nginx or any other existing web server stack. Many new features of Cloudflare are in turn built on Workers, and much of the old stack build on nginx is gradually being migrated to Workers. https://workers.dev https://github.com/cloudflare/workerd

In another part of the stack, there is Pingora, another built-from-scratch web server focused on high-performance proxying and caching: https://blog.cloudflare.com/how-we-built-pingora-the-proxy-t...

Even when using nginx, Cloudflare has rewritten or added big chunks of code, such as implementing HTTP/3: https://github.com/cloudflare/quiche And of course there is a ton of business logic written in Lua on top of that nginx base.

Though arguably, Cloudflare's biggest piece of magic is the layer 3 network. It's so magical that people don't even think about it, it just works. Seamlessly balancing traffic across hundreds of locations without even varying IP addresses is, well, not easy.

I could go on... automatic SSL provisioning? DDoS protection? etc. These aren't nginx features.

So while Cloudflare may have gotten started being more-or-less nginx-as-a-service I don't think you can really call it that anymore.

(I'm the tech lead for Cloudflare Workers.)

Ask Cloudflare why they use HTTP/3 and QUIC https://github.com/cloudflare/quiche.

Cloudflare has used rust for multiple projects in the past such as their QUIC/HTTP3 implementation Quiche and a WireGuard implementation BoringTun.
