  • KSAT with Vegard Sandengen
    As a kid, I was always fascinated by space tech. That fascination has only grown as I've learned more about the engineering challenges involved in space exploration.In this episode, we talk to Vegard Sandengen, a Rust engineer at KSAT, a company that provides ground station services for satellites. They use Rust to manage the data flow from hundreds of satellites, ensuring that data is received, processed, and stored efficiently. This data is then made available to customers around the world, enabling them to make informed decisions based on real-time satellite data.We dive deep into the technical challenges of building reliable, high-performance systems that operate 24/7 to capture and process satellite data. Vegard shares insights into why Rust was chosen for these mission-critical systems, how they handle the massive scale of data processing, and the unique reliability requirements when dealing with space-based infrastructure.From ground station automation to data pipeline optimization, this conversation explores how modern systems programming languages are enabling the next generation of space technology infrastructure.

  • 1Password with Andrew Burkhart
    Handling secrets is extremely hard. You have to keep them safe (obviously), while at the same time you need to integrate with a ton of different systems and always provide a great user-experience, because otherwise people will just find a way around your system. When talking to peers, a lot of people mention 1Password as a company that nailed this balance.

  • Tembo with Adam Hendel
    In today's episode, I talk to Adam Hendel, the founding engineer of Tembo, about their project, PGMQ, and how it came to be. We discuss the design decisions behind job queues, interfacing from Rust to Postgres, and the engineering decisions that went into building the extension.

  • Rust with Niko Matsakis
    Few developers have been as influential to my career as Niko Matsakis. Of course he is a world-class engineer with a PhD from ETH Zürich, a Rust core maintainer who has been working on the language for way more than a decade, and a Senior Principal Engineer at AWS. But more importantly, he is an empathetic human and an exceptional communicator.

  • uv with Charlie Marsh
    Up until a few years ago, Python tooling was a nightmare: basic tasks like installing packages or managing Python versions was a pain. The tools were brittle and did not work well together, mired in a swamp of underspecified implementation defined behaviour.Then, apparently suddenly, but in reality backed by years of ongoing work on formal interoperability specifications, we saw a renaissance of new ideas in the Python ecosystem. It started with Poetry and pipx and continued with tooling written in Rust like rye, which later got incorporated into Astral. Astral in particular contributed a very important piece to the puzzle: uv – an extremely fast Python package and project manager that supersedes all previous attempts; For example, it is 10x-100x faster than pip. In this episode I talk to Charlie Marsh, the Founder and CEO of Astral. We talk about Astral’s mission and how Rust plays an important role in it.

About Rust in Production

This is "Rust in Production", a podcast about companies who use Rust to shape the future of infrastructure. We follow their journey in pursuit of more reliable and efficient software as they solve some of the most challenging technical problems in the world. Each episode dives deep into real-world applications of Rust, showcasing how this powerful systems programming language is revolutionizing the way we build and maintain critical infrastructure. From startups to tech giants, we explore the diverse landscape of organizations leveraging Rust's unique features to create safer, faster, and more scalable systems. Our guests share their experiences, challenges, and triumphs in adopting Rust for production environments. Listen in as we discuss topics such as concurrent programming, memory safety, performance optimization, and how Rust's ownership model contributes to building robust software systems. Whether you're a seasoned Rust developer, an infrastructure engineer, or a tech leader considering Rust for your next project, "Rust in Production" offers valuable insights and practical knowledge. Release Schedule "Rust in Production" releases new episodes every other Thursday at 4 PM UTC. Our podcast is structured into seasons, each featuring a diverse range of companies and experts in the Rust ecosystem. Recent episodes have included: - Season 2: Interviews with representatives from System76, Fusion Engineering, OxidOS, Matic, Thunderbird, AMP, and curl. - Season 1: Conversations with leaders from Sentry, Tweede Golf, Arroyo, Apollo, PubNub, and InfluxData. What You'll Learn - Real-world case studies of Rust implementation in production environments - Insights into how companies overcome technical challenges using Rust - Best practices for adopting Rust in various infrastructure contexts - The impact of Rust on software reliability, efficiency, and scalability - Future trends in systems programming and infrastructure development Join us as we uncover the latest trends in Rust development, explore best practices for using Rust in production, and examine how this language is addressing some of the most pressing issues in modern software engineering. From web services and databases to embedded systems and cloud infrastructure, we cover the full spectrum of Rust's impact on the tech industry.
