The term, in context
AI-assisted draft · approved dataset
The AWS Lambda Rust runtime lets a function's Rust source compile directly into a single native binary that runs on Lambda's custom runtime interface. This bypasses the interpreter or virtual-machine startup that language-managed runtimes require, shortening how long a function takes to begin executing after being invoked.
