From Spring Boot to Rust: Rewriting a Live Marketplace mpazari.com spent years on a legacy ASP.NET stack — the .aspx URLs still in the wild prove it. A recent Spring Boot rewrite replaced that engine, first as a JVM jar, then as a GraalVM native image to tame memory usage. The question that started this project: if we rewrote the whole application in Rust, what would we gain, what would we break, and how do we prove we broke nothing? This post covers the rewrite, the parity hunting, the server-side build/deploy pipeline, and the load test comparing all three runtimes on the same production box. ...

Introduction Today I’m excited to announce the addition of Bun to our microservice framework benchmark suite. The results are nothing short of remarkable . Bun has proven to be one of the fastest runtimes in our entire test suite, competing directly with Rust frameworks! What is Bun? Bun is a modern JavaScript runtime built from scratch using Zig and JavaScriptCore (the engine that powers Safari). It’s designed to be a drop-in replacement for Node.js with a focus on: ...

Introduction Test results for this benchmark run → Over the last two days, I’ve expanded our microservice framework benchmark suite to include two new contenders: Golang and Express.js. This addition allows us to compare performance across a broader spectrum of technologies, from compiled languages like Rust and Go to JVM-based frameworks and Node.js. New Additions Golang (Go 1.24.10) Go was added using the standard library only - no external frameworks. The implementation uses net/http package which is known for its excellent performance and simplicity. ...
