    > I would be curious to see how a rust microservice would compare in my companies infrastructure. How much cloud saving could we squeeze?

So, replace cheap Java developers for expensive Rust devs to squeeze out some savings? It makes no sense to me.

well if the argument is cheaper, I can argue that JS/python dev would be more cheaper since there are more pool of talent

Double agree. If Java was the right choice 10-15 years ago for cheap enterprise apps, then certainly NodeJS is the way to go today. There are heaps of cheap developers and the ecosystem is ginormous.

Is it really to the point of challenging java ? Seems like Java is still the way to go here.
