In terms of deploying rust directly to make money- Microsoft is probably the leader right now with actix used in azure iot

Dropbox are also using Rust in both their storage layer, and their desktop client.

You do realize that dropbox has very small profits, right? They made all of 50m in q2

Is it mature? Can you shed more light on how is it used in production?

I don't believe that it uses Actix, though. Actix was created by and is maintained by a Microsoft employee.

He has mentioned on an HN comment that they are using it internally, but isn't allowed to disclose how.

We use actix at azure iot

Ah, something that’s not in that repo? That’s awesome!
