NPM Adopted Rust to Remove Performance Bottlenecks

In the end, the npm team decided to deploy the Rust version of the authentication service mostly thanks to the strong support they got from the Rust community and to the superiority of Rust package manager Cargo, in comparison with what Go offered at that time. The good news for the npm team is that the Rust service has been running for more than one year in production without a single alert. This is in stark contrast to the usual experience of deploying a Node.js service at npm which includes extensive monitoring to keep errors and resource usage under control.
