One of the most important and valuable (at least to me) things about the Java and the JVM is its ecosystem. And Apache is a part of that ecosystem. BTW a lot of the Apache projects aren't even Java or depend on the JVM.

Do these languages have similar ecosystems?

Go and Rust have very good package management (Go's kinda sucked but go modules is helping a lot), so yes. They both work much nicer than the occasions I've used maven etc.

I think that package management is very different from an ecosystem. I'm somewhat aware of rust and gos' package managers, but I'm really curious about if they have ecosystems similar to Apache. I wouldn't be too surprise if the Apache ecosystem embraces more and more go and rust projects as time goes on...
