aws-lambda-rust-runtime

The most relevant uses of Zig that come to mind are: - Bun, as you mentioned - https://tigerbeetle.com/ - https://www.uber.com/en-IT/blog/bootstrapping-ubers-infrastr... Plus a bunch of other companies (including some very big ones) and projects that use Zig here and there, eg AWS uses cargo-zigbuild https://github.com/awslabs/aws-lambda-rust-runtime/blob/e2d5... Zig also has a few other very promising OSS projects: - https://github.com/riverwm/river (wayland compositor) - https://github.com/ZigEmbeddedGroup/microzig (HAL for embedded development) - https://machengine.org/ (truly cross-platform gamedev) - https://github.com/michal-z/zig-gamedev (another serious gamedev toolkit) Just off the top of my mind. Like for all things, you gotta get started somewhere and this is where we are at the moment.

Rust on Lambda's using containers as the deployment artifact are also very good, i'd say a perfect match. Low artifact size, low cpu+memory usage, fast execution. I think AWS must be using increasingly using Rust on Lambda internally from the talks I've seen them publish and the work gone in to https://github.com/awslabs/aws-lambda-rust-runtime. For simple REST API's there's not much extra effort in using Rust once you are familiar.
