Abstract
The article explores the concept of combining synchronous and asynchronous code in Rust using SeaQL. It delves into optimizing concurrency through message passing, providing examples ranging from pure synchronous code with std::sync::mpsc to asynchronous code with tokio::sync::mpsc and the ideal setup using Flume for multi-producer, multi-consumer scenarios. The article also covers transitioning between synchronous and asynchronous code and handling graceful shutdowns.
