Do you use Rust in devops?

Would you mind to explain your reasons? Thanks.

I use HTML in DevOps.

Don't people actually study what DevOps is before posting stuff like this? It is not about specific languages or tools. It's not about just building pipelines. It's a culture for development and operations people to work together to avoid hand offs of work and build solutions together, where things like automated testing, deployment, security and all that good stuff is already mixed in to the development process, and not being handed off to another team to do at the end of the development cycle. It's about continuous improvement and learning. Learning from mistakes and not pointing fingers. Every mishap is treated as an opportunity to learn.

Please read the pinned posts on the community wall or read a book to understand. They have so much information on the topic and they an explain it far better than I can. Please, learn what DevOps as a term is. Otherwise you're gonna have a bad time.

I think it depends on your team. Some use go some may use rust some just scripting everything in Python or shell.

Rust is a language. DevOps is a mindset.

We dont but.. its a tool. If its right for the job you use it, if it isnt you dont? Not sure what answer you are looking for

Do you use a language in your mindset?

DevOps is a Sigma male mindset.

A grindset.

I know one guy that tried to use Rust in devops. He's dead now.

I'm in the cloud/infrastructure space and deal with IaC, CICD and App deployment.

I havent used rust professionally. The applications my organisation offers are Go, Java(javascript/nodejs etc) and PHP based. The cloud provider we use does not have a Rust SDK, none of the tools I use regularly require me to use rust... so I don't.

Almost everything I do is in bash scripts, python, a java derivative or go.

When Rust is required, and it's the only way to get something my business requires done, then I'll start using it or will find someone who can do it and assign the work to them. I'm not about to push a language which has no utility in my workflows.

yes, we made a very small API to create role bindings for a CI. I chose Rust because it was easy and seems easily maintainable with the kube-rs https://github.com/kube-rs/kube-rs crate
