Overview

Stop compromising on your web APIs. Build services that are blazingly fast, inherently safe, and scale without fear. Rust offers a unique trifecta of performance, safety, and concurrency, making it the ideal choice for demanding backend systems. Production-Ready Rust: Build, Deploy, and Scale Fault-Tolerant Web APIs with Confidence is your practical, hands-on guide to mastering the entire lifecycle of building and operating robust web APIs with Rust. Forget unpredictable GC pauses and elusive memory bugs. This book dives deep into Rust's powerful features, showing you how to leverage them for backend development that inspires confidence. Go beyond simple examples and learn the battle-tested patterns and tools used in real-world production systems. Inside, you'll master: Architecting for Resilience: Design fault-tolerant systems using layered architecture and master Rust's powerful error handling (Result, Option, custom errors). High-Performance Foundations: Leverage Rust's zero-cost abstractions, harness fearless concurrency with async/await and Tokio, and choose the right web framework (axum, actix-web). Robust Data Persistence: Confidently manage your data with sqlx or Diesel, implement efficient connection pooling, handle transactions safely, and execute zero-downtime schema migrations. Ironclad Security: Implement modern authentication (JWT, refresh tokens), authorization, HTTPS/TLS with rustls, and systematically defend against common attacks like SQLi, XSS, and CSRF. Production-Grade Operations: Achieve full observability with structured logging (tracing), metrics collection (Prometheus), and distributed tracing (OpenTelemetry) for complete system visibility. Seamless Deployments: Containerize your application effectively with Docker using multi-stage builds, automate your entire workflow with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions), and deploy confidently to modern cloud platforms like AWS, GCP, Azure, or the developer-friendly Fly.io. Advanced Scaling Techniques: Implement professional zero-downtime deployment strategies (rolling updates, blue-green), configure load balancing, leverage caching layers (Redis, CDNs, in-memory), and explore event-driven patterns with message queues. Performance Mastery: Learn the art of benchmarking and profiling your Rust code to pinpoint and eliminate performance bottlenecks, ensuring your API runs at peak efficiency. This book is essential for: Backend developers coming from Go, Node.js, Java, Python, or other languages seeking superior performance, reliability, and resource efficiency. Intermediate Rust developers ready to apply their skills to building and operating mission-critical, production-grade systems. Engineers and architects tasked with designing high-performance, scalable, and fault-tolerant web services and APIs. By the end of this book, you won't just know Rust; you'll possess the practical skills, architectural knowledge, and operational confidence needed to build, deploy, operate, and scale professional web APIs that meet the rigorous demands of modern production environments.
