Project mention: I'm Funding Ladybird Because I Can't Fund Firefox | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-07-07
What he said is true, AWS uses Rust heavily in some of AWS core systems https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/devops/why-aws-is-the-best-plac....
Some of the open source projects you can find are AWS Firecracker https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker and Cloudflare Pingora https://github.com/cloudflare/pingora

Don't overlook Bottlerocket, which despite coming out of AWS is not (AFAIK) AWS-centric: https://github.com/bottlerocket-os/bottlerocket#readme
It's also super handy for writing out static Pod manifests to have replace the brain-damaging Ignition as a less stupid alternative to cloud-init

Project mention: The Linux Kernel Prepares for Rust 1.77 Upgrade | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-18
This is a good guide on building small Rust binaries: https://github.com/johnthagen/min-sized-rust
This talks about going to extreme lengths on making the smallest Rust binary possible, 400 bytes when it was written, https://darkcoding.net/software/a-very-small-rust-binary-ind...
The thing is, you lose a lot of nice features when you do this, like panic unwinding, debug symbols, stdlib… for kernel and some embedded development it’s definitely important, but for most use cases, does it matter?

kata-containers
Kata Containers is an open source project and community working to build a standard implementation of lightweight Virtual Machines (VMs) that feel and perform like containers, but provide the workload isolation and security advantages of VMs. https://katacontainers.io/
> I actually wonder how much "overhead" a VM actually has. i.e. a linux kernel that doesn't do anything (say perhaps just boots to an init that mounts proc and every n seconds read in/prints out /proc/meminfo) how much memory would the kernel actually be using?
There's already some memory sharing available using DAX in Kata Containers at least: https://github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers/blob/main...

docker-compose-wait
A simple script to wait for other docker images to be started while using docker-compose (or Kubernetes or docker stack or whatever)

-
kuasar
A multi-sandbox container runtime that provides cloud-native, all-scenario multiple sandbox container solutions.

Mayastor
Dynamically provision Stateful Persistent Replicated Cluster-wide Fabric Volumes & Filesystems for Kubernetes that is provisioned from an optimized NVME SPDK backend data storage stack.

Nanocl is a powerful tool designed to streamline project deployment and alleviate the pains associated with localhost development. By seamlessly integrating with your development workflow, Nanocl simplifies the process of running multiple services locally and eliminates common headaches like CORS issues, port conflicts and cookies.

maelstrom
Maelstrom is a fast Rust, Go, and Python test runner that runs every test in its own container. Tests are either run locally or distributed to a clustered job runner. (by maelstrom-software)
Project mention: Show HN: Maelstrom – A Hermetic, Clustered Test Runner for Python and Rust | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-07-09We use our own small wrappers for these syscalls, built on top of Rust's libc crate. All our wrappers live here:
https://github.com/maelstrom-software/maelstrom/blob/main/cr...
For bind mounts, you want to look at open_tree and move_mount. For "regular" mounts, you want to look at fsopen, fsconfig, fsmount, and move_mount.
