Andrea Bozzo | Blog

馃憢 Welcome to my technical blog!

I write about Data Engineering, Rust, Go, Python and open source technologies.

Exploring lakehouse architectures, real-time streaming and the modern data world.

Async in Python and Rust

Async in Python and Rust: Two Worlds, One Keyword

A technical exploration of async/await in Python and Rust: how the same syntax hides completely different execution models, with practical examples from contributions to Tokio and Python projects.
