I don't write web services, so it's hard for me to answer about axum, but if I were to speculate, I'd point out that PHP, Ruby and Python have good integrations with tools like Apache and nginx, while AOT compiled languages like C++ and Rust do not. There is CGI/FastCGI, but then you're parsing strings in true Unix fashion. When instead you use a web server library written in the language you use, you get to use a richer interface than functions [byte] -> [byte]. Go is nicer here since it has that in the standard library, but the idea is the same. But again: take that with a grain of salt --- I don't write web services. > I mean i only asked for an example of a small team performing magic thanks to rust so if there's no examples of that, i can be certain there's no examples of a large team performing magic thanks to rust! Well then, my examples of large teams should be sufficient. :) Oh, and I've just remembered about this nice project: <https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/ https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker/>
