Making sequential code parallel

Creating highly concurrent applications from scratch is relatively simple in many technologies and languages. However, when multiple developers have to build on pre-existing work of some kind (legacy or not), creating these highly concurrent applications gets complicated. Thanks to API differences across languages, best practices, or technical limitations, existing operations on sequences cannot be run in parallel without in-depth analysis. Who would do that if the potential benefit is not significant? With Rust's powerful iterators, can we run operations in parallel without major code changes? Our answer is yes!

Claus Matzinger

Claus Matzinger is a software engineer with a very diverse background. After working in a small company maintaining code for embedded devices, he joined a large corporation to work on legacy Smalltalk applications. This led to a great interest in programming languages early on, and Claus became the CTO for a health games start-up based on Scala technology. Since then, Claus' roles have shifted toward customer-facing roles in the IoT database-technology start-up crate.io and, most recently, Microsoft. There, he hosts a podcast, writes code together with customers, and blogs about the solutions arising from these engagements. For more than 5 years, Claus has implemented software to help customers innovate, achieve, and maintain success.
