"Rust in Legacy Regulated Industries"
summary
Ampere (Renault Group) mandates Rust at exposed network interfaces and reports that after two years more than half of in-car software components are Rust, with about 100 people working on Rust full-time. The migration removes proxies and packet-inspection layers, yielding measurable savings in performance, energy, and technical debt, and claims roughly 70% fewer memory safety vulnerabilities. Remaining friction includes Android buildchain limits (no Cargo, using Sun), crate supply-chain concerns, and gaps in safety-qualified toolchains for embedded certification.
