I am a full time Rust developer working at Stockly in Paris. My daily Rust activities are primarily fueled by Diesel, which keep me busy for most of the day. I am highly interested in data models, and particularly Rust oriented solutions. I greatly enjoy familiarising myself with Rust, both the language and the community -- a world still new to me since up until a few years ago I was a research mathematician in England. When I'm not thinking about the various connections between category theory and my new Rust existence, I enjoy climbing, running, playing ping-pong, and juggling.

I will introduce the idea that coding, in general, can be seen as an attempt to travel inside an abstract space of textual objects, in which the language creates a unique topography. I will then revisit classical and fundamental notions of Rust, but present them from the perspective of the effect they have on this topography, culminating in some speculations on the usefulness of such a formalism.

Yosh is a Cloud Native Advocate at Microsoft, based in Copenhagen, Denmark. They're a member of the Rust Async WG, and a Bytecode Alliance Recognized contributor. Also an: enthusiast cook, and proud cat dad.

WASI 0.2 was stabilized last February, after nearly five years of development. All based on Wasm Components - a composable, typed ABI for WebAssembly. WASI now has native support for async sockets, filesystem, timers, and other core IO primitives. All which are surprisingly easy to work with.

In this talk Yosh will explain what's new in WebAssembly, why that matters for Rustaceans, and provide practical examples of how to start using it today. WASI is something that's been described as having great potential, and being the future of cloud computing. And now it's actually here, and Rust is one of the languages with the best tooling for it.

Recalling my first adventure with Rust more than 6 years ago, when I created my own trading bot as a hobby, I was impressed by the reliability and stability of the code even with imperfect implementation.

Sometimes we need to extract a limited amount of information from large text bodies. Traditional parsing libraries are not well suited for this task and the compiler is still not always able to optimize code in a way that we need. In this talk we dive into the Rust feature which allows us to write fast efficient platform dependent parsers utilizing CPU SIMD.

I have been working with Rust for 3 years. I mostly do system programming, different auth/network protocol implementations, and integrating Rust libraries into existing projects. I program, reverse, and debug different interesting stuff. Besides IT I like to work out. Fun fact: I can do 13 pull-ups with +24 kg of additional weight, or 1 pull-up with +50 kg.

My goal is to introduce the process of Rust code integration into any existing program. Explain why this task is not trivial, what problems you can face, and provide you with some advice on how to make this integration process easier and safer.

Iterators in Rust are a high-level abstraction and the primary mechanism for operating on a sequence of data. They are also the mechanism used by collections to plug-in to for loops. How fast are iterators? How do they compare to C-style loops? How do you implement and use iterators to maximise performance? This talk will answer performance questions about iterators by diving into the details of their performance characteristics.

I would like to take this opportunity and share some of my experience building embedded project with Rust. In particular, I will show you a few ways how to setup your embassy-based project to support not only running tests with std (for CI or locally) but also tests running on your device. We would also take a look at a simple way to support multiple boards at the same time. I've also prepared a special and exciting for me topic revealed during my talk.

The embassy framework and crates are specifically designed for asynchronous development and can take your embedded project to a new level, as well as yours. Let me inspire you to take a few steps to the wonderful world of embedded firmware development using Rust while having fun.

Gerd Zellweger is a systems researcher focusing on operating systems, databases and networks. He likes to build system software that interacts with emerging hardware technologies. He earned his Doctorate degree in Computer Science in 2017 at ETH Zurich and was a systems researcher at the VMware Research Group from 2018 until 2023. Currently, he is a co-founder of a startup specializing on incremental computation.

In this talk, I will share our journey of developing a robust storage engine for DBSP, an advanced incremental computation library written in Rust. DBSP serves as the backbone of Feldera, an innovative platform that continuously evaluates SQL queries on real-time data streams. We will delve into the fundamentals of incremental computation, highlighting its impact on data analytics. Then, I’ll walk you through our two-year evolution from an in-memory engine to a solution capable of persisting state on disk, enabling us to handle datasets far exceeding memory constraints.

While we initially relied on RocksDB, ultimately, the need for optimized performance led us to implement a custom solution. This session will cover some of the technical challenges, key design decisions, and the significant performance gains achieved through our custom implementation.

I've spent the last 8 years working on query engines for almost every kind of data imaginable: from relational and graph databases to APIs and unstructured data files. I built Trustfall, a universal query engine that can query any data source(s), and cargo-semver-checks, a semantic versioning linter for Rust. Previously, I was a principal engineer at Kensho Technologies, I did performance engineering research at MIT, and I competed in international math and programming competitions. When I'm not in front of a screen, I enjoy skiing, ice hockey, and board games. I'm also a huge space buff!

We all love using great developer tools! What's stopping us from having even more great tools at our disposal? How can we do better in the future?

Through a series of examples from the cargo-semver-checks SemVer linter, this talk will present the challenges dev tools face: correctness, performance, scope, and long-term maintainability. Without careful engineering, these risks are serious enough to derail any project! Then we’ll show how the Trustfall query engine helps cargo-semver-checks overcome these risks.
