The blog post mentions support for 300+ services. I have a couple of questions:

1. It would be interesting to see a comparison between the Rust service coverage and other language SDKs that have been around for a while such as Java. Is there such a place to see this comparison? 2. Will the Rust SDK stay up to date with the latest services as they're announced?

I'm very excited to see this announcement. It's been a long time coming.

The Rust SDK is built on top of the smithy-rs code generator. On the service coverage front, you'll find nearly 100% parity—There are some legacy APIs that aren't supported. It also doesn't have many "high level libraries" (e.g. S3 transfer manager) that can find for other languages.

New services will come out the same day as all other SDKs–All SDKs utilize the same automated system to deploy new releases.

The only exception is services which require extensive custom code. We're still catching up on those for the Rust SDK.

As a follow-on question, is there plans to integrate the AWS CRT under the hood or does the existence of Tokio and async/await negate the need for it?

Disclaimer: I am not working on the SDK nor for Amazon.

As far as I read the code of some AWS SDKs, the SDKs (in most languages) are generated from interface files and are thus always in-sync and cover the same APIs in every language.
