Rust in Production Ep 5 - Tweede Golf's Folkert de Vries

  • Resumen

  • Have you ever wondered how computers stay in sync with the time? That is the
    responsibility of the Network Time Protocol (NTP). Around since 1985, NTP is one
    of the oldest protocols still in use on the internet and its reference
    implementation, ntpd, written in C, is still widely used today.

    That's a problem. C is a language that is not memory safe, and ntpd has had its
    share of security vulnerabilities. Here is a list of CVEs.

    As part of Project Pendulum, Folkert de Vries and his colleagues from Tweede
    Golf have been working on a Rust implementation of NTP. I sit down with Folkert
    to talk about the project, the challenges they faced, and the benefits of using
    Rust for this kind of project.

    Along the way, we learn about funding open source projects, the challenges of
    establishing a new implementation of a protocol, and all sorts of other
    interesting things that might or might not be related to NTP.
