24 alternatives to Run a Rust HTTP Server in AWS Lambda (Axum+Scaffoldly)

Scaffoldly allows you to run any HTTP server inside AWS Lambda. It requires no code changes to your existing server and a simple configuration in the project's Cargo.toml. Deployments can be done locally or in GitHub Actions. In this example, we're running a axum server in AWS Lambda, and the scaffoldly toolchain handles packaging, deployment, and routing of AWS Lambda HTTP requests.

    In 2023, AWS announced[1] IAM authentication for MSK Kafka clusters with support for "all programming languages"… except C++. While Java[2], Python[3], Go[4], and others got official SDKs, C++ developers/vendors were stuck hardcoding SCRAM-SHA credentials in code/configs or relying on heavier Java-based tools like Kafka Connect or Apache Flink. Later, community projects added Rust[5] and Ruby[6] support. Why no C++? Rust might be the new favorite, but C++ is still king for high-performance data systems: minimal dependencies, lean resource use, and raw speed. At Timeplus, we needed…

    Hey everyone! I've developed a new CLI that I'm hoping will turn into a vibrant community. Its a developer friendly alternative to using Terraform, Serverless, or other CDKs or Toolchains. I'd love any feedback you all may have!

    MerLoc is a live AWS Lambda function development and debugging tool. MerLoc allows you to run AWS Lambda functions on your local while they are still part of a flow in the AWS cloud remote. MerLoc makes it possible to - test your function locally without deploy to the AWS Lambda environment (so no wait for build, package and deploy) - debug your function by putting breakpoints from your IDE - hot-reload updated function on your local automatically to apply changes automatically (so again no wait for build, package and deploy) - run the individual function locally while it is still part of…

    We built it from the ground up, minimal Linux based operating system (written in go and rust), messaging system written in rust and infrastructure as code support (terraform and pulumi) There is even a dashboard, and a playground UI to manage it (that you can even run yourself) . Beautifully decentralized, you have full control of everything, you can deploy on your own servers if the cost of the cloud is too much. You can even run the whole system yourself if you want to. Here is a link to documentation https://manual.grid.tf/ Also, we are honored if it piqued your interest,…

    Revisited an old experiment of mine (https://github.com/dan-v/awslambdaproxy): can AWS Lambda functions work as network proxies? This time using UDP NAT hole punching + QUIC tunnels. Client discovers public IP via STUN, writes session data to S3, which triggers a Lambda. Both endpoints punch UDP holes through their NATs, then establish a QUIC connection for encrypted traffic forwarding.
