Summary

The new MongoDB Rust Driver is an open-source, Apache-licensed library implemented entirely in Rust. It provides a familiar user experience to users of other MongoDB drivers, with features like connection to local and remote servers, database management, CRUD operations, bulk writes, and cursors. The driver is designed to take advantage of Rust's concurrency and memory safety features, making it suitable for building high-performance applications. The driver is available on crates.io as mongodb, and can be used by adding the bson and mongodb crates to a Cargo.toml file. A tutorial application called tariff demonstrates basic usage of the driver, including exporting and importing data from MongoDB databases.
