> As a PostgreSQL trusted procedural language, PL/Rust provides memory safety so that an unprivileged user can run code in the database without the risk of crashing the database due to a software defect that corrupts memory.

Kudos to the RDS team - I believe they are the first to ship plrust of any cloud vendor.

There are still a few bugs to iron out around compiling rust functions on the database, so if you are looking to use this make sure you choose a larger instance with plenty of resources

If you’re aware of bugs that fall within plrust’s domain we’d appreciate any and all reports via GitHub!
