Certainty for the future with the Rust Transition Service

Why Rust is the right step now

Regulatory pressure to make software more secure, efficient and cost-effective is constantly growing. Regulations such as the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and standards such as IEC 62443 or IEC 60601 (medical technology) are significantly increasing the demands on software security. With conventional languages such as C++ reaching their limits, Rust offers decisive advantages through memory- and thread-safe development and deterministic performance without garbage collection.

But there are also other reasons to choose a language such as Rust. Rust combines high performance with predictable lifetime without garbage collection and ensures reliable storage management thanks to its ownership system. The language supports modern programming concepts and cross-platform applications and enables efficient and safe concurrent programming.

Your benefits from using Rust

Rust carries out formal compile-time checks    based on ownership rules. This ensures that memory cannot be written to simultaneously and is released again when it is no longer needed. Because this happens at compile time, performance is on a par with C++.

• Enhanced software security with Rust: Protection against memory errors and security vulnerabilities such as buffer overflows or Use-After-Free (UAF).
• Optimised regulatory compliance with Rust: Simplified compliance with industry standards and regulations.
• Economic benefits with Rust: Reduction in total cost of ownership (TCO) thanks to fewer errors, shorter development cycles and lower maintenance costs.

The highlight of bbv’s Rust Transition Service

The Transition Service offers a continuous shift from conventional programming languages in the sense of modernising software during its further development in ongoing projects or a jump start in the case of new projects.
