Rust is the best language for data infra
Rust is an excellent choice for building data infrastructure due to its performance, control, safety, and ease of development. It offers excellent performance by default, thanks to zero-cost abstractions and optimizations. Rust's lack of garbage collection and compile-time memory management make it well-suited for stream processing systems. The Rust compiler's pedantic nature ensures code correctness, and the Cargo package manager and ecosystem make it easy to integrate third-party libraries. However, there are challenges such as the learning curve, the roughness of async programming in Rust, and the lack of a stable ABI.
