Hydro: A High-Performance Distributed Programming Framework in Rust
Hydro is a high-level distributed programming framework for Rust, enabling the creation of scalable and correct-by-construction distributed services. Unlike traditional actor or RPC architectures, Hydro employs choreographic APIs and a high-performance single-threaded DFIR runtime. It simplifies deployment via Hydro Deploy, supporting both local and cloud environments. Using a two-stage compilation process, it generates deployment plans locally and then compiles to DFIR binaries for each machine, deploying them to the cloud based on the plan and cloud resource specifications. Hydro has been used to build various high-performance distributed systems, including implementations of classic protocols like two-phase commit and Paxos.
