Show HN: Apache Fory Rust – 10-20x faster serialization than JSON/Protobuf https://fory.apache.org/blog/2025/10/29/fory_rust_versatile_serialization_framework/ (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45736400)
Introducing Apache Fory™ Rust: A Versatile Serialization Framework for the Modern Age | Apache Fory™
TL;DR: Apache Fory Rust is a blazingly-fast, cross-language serialization framework that delivers ultra-fast serialization performance while automatically handling circular references, trait objects, and schema evolution. Built with Rust's safety guarantees and zero-copy techniques, it's designed for developers who refuse to compromise between performance and developer experience.

Growing more baffled by `prost` by the day; wondering why protobuf libraries are so consistently like this. Today’s confusion is rooted in how it handles enums: it stores an i32 in the message type containing the enum and expects you to convert manually (or use generated methods)

Unrelated to the name. Last weekend I did some digging into building a DSL that could autogen SDKs for anything (think OpenAPI/Protobuf). I've been looking for a way to contribute to ATProto (esp @stream.place) so I look forward to helping out on the Rust side.

for the perf freaks out there, I'll be speaking at #p99conf next month on Protobuf optimization. it's a very cursed talk, and it'll be free and online!
come ask me questions about cpu implementation details, perf profiling, and writing really fast parsers :3

the libraries have so far been a pleasant surprise. i read source code of my dependencies (there's only one direct dependency in this project that i haven't done a deep dive into, and it's google/protobuf) so i get exposed to hidden warts early and often. i expected a lot more hidden warts

For networking ppl yang is the way to get structured data out of a box, personally I’d like the industry to evolve more to protobuf or json schema, but unfortunately that’s what we’re stuck with. You’d be surprised how many people are still doing CLI screen scraping. 😬

Hehe, é algo por aí…
Você registra o schema no AWS Glue, aí os producers e consumers baixam o schema e conferem se a mensagem está de acordo antes de enviar e após receber…
Na configuração tem o modo de compatibilidade, e se é Avro, Protobuf ou JSON Schema

It's hard enough as is to not call gNMI "OIDs as ProtoBuf" and you go ahead and pull this stunt...

this is system dependent. you could build an actor system in ways where messages aren’t serialized at all and are just values within the same program/language, and you can build actor systems where you send protobuf messages over kafka too.

if anyone else has had the ssh-replacement “mosh” segfaulting on macOS when it’s installed via homebrew lately and haven’t been bothered to fix it, you probably just need to run “brew reinstall protobuf”

I know nothing about ProtoBuf but I wonder whether the issue could've been avoided by a different design, and the refactoring example just screams lack of practice from his younger self.
Again, I don't want to discredit him or downplay the talk, but I find issue with the examples given.
