Rust Database Access with SQLx: Queries, Migrations, and Compile-Time Checks

A practical two-hour session on Rust Database Access with SQLx, focused on Queries, Migrations, and Compile-Time Checks. Rust is used as the implementation context while the core lesson stays on software engineering fundamentals, reliability, testing, and operational clarity.

Audience: entry-level and intermediate developers who want a practical engineering session, not a language tour.

Outcomes:

• Explain the practical boundaries of Rust Database Access with SQLx
• Apply Queries in a small working example
• Apply Migrations in a small working example
• Apply and Compile-Time Checks in a small working example

Format: two hours with a short framing walkthrough, a concrete example, discussion of tradeoffs, and a closing checklist for practice.
