Rust Reverse Proxy Exercise with Hyper and Tower: Routing, Authentication, Rate Limits, and Observability

A practical two-hour session on Rust Reverse Proxy Exercise with Hyper and Tower, focused on Routing, Authentication, Rate Limits, and Observability. 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 Reverse Proxy Exercise with Hyper and Tower
• Apply Routing in a small working example
• Apply Authentication in a small working example
• Apply Rate Limits 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.
