Is Rust ready for Quant projects in 2021?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/rust4quants

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • polars

    Dataframes powered by a multithreaded, vectorized query engine, written in Rust

  • Reading around, it looks like polars seems like a good generic Data type. Similar to pandas DataFrame.

  • tokio-tungstenite

    Future-based Tungstenite for Tokio. Lightweight stream-based WebSocket implementation

  • I have experience building distributed systems using microservices, and using message queues, so ZMQ looks like a decent choice. I like Warp & Reqwest for HTTP(s) work. Tokio-tungstenite looks good for Websockets.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • alpaca-finance-rs

    A Rust library for interacting with Alpaca.markets

  • I'm using Alpaca as my broker for stocks. I forked an Alpaca API Client.
