Deploy your Rust app to Fly.io
Step-by-step deployment help for Rust apps on Fly.io. We fix Rust-specific deployment issues, configure Fly.io, and get your app live. From $19.
Rust issues we fix before deploying
Common Rust problems that affect Fly.io deployments.
Excessive .clone() usage
AI tools clone data everywhere to satisfy the borrow checker instead of using references, lifetimes, or Cow — defeating Rust's zero-cost abstraction goals.
Unnecessary unsafe blocks
Using unsafe to bypass compiler checks rather than restructuring code to work within safe Rust, introducing memory safety vulnerabilities.
Improper error handling with unwrap()
Calling .unwrap() and .expect() on Result and Option types instead of proper error propagation with ? operator, causing panics in production.
Blocking in async contexts
Using std::thread::sleep, synchronous I/O, or blocking mutex locks inside async functions, starving the Tokio runtime of worker threads.
Fly.io deployment issues we check for
Common Fly.io problems that break Rust apps in production.
Dockerfile missing or misconfigured
Fly.io requires a Dockerfile for deployment. AI tools that scaffold without one force flyctl to auto-generate a suboptimal Dockerfile that misses build steps.
Volume only available in a single region
Fly volumes are pinned to one region. Multi-region deployments try to access a volume that doesn't exist in other regions, causing crashes.
Machine restarts losing in-memory state
AI-generated apps store session data or caches in memory. Fly machines can restart or migrate, wiping all in-memory state without warning.
Internal DNS resolution failing between services
Services within a Fly organization communicate via <app>.internal hostnames, but AI-generated code hardcodes localhost or public URLs.

Frequently asked questions
How do I deploy a Rust app to Fly.io?
We handle Rust deployments to Fly.io end to end. Start with our code audit ($19) to identify deployment blockers specific to your Rust project, then we configure Fly.io, fix issues, and get your app live in production.
What Rust issues affect Fly.io deployments?
Rust projects commonly have excessive .clone() usage and unnecessary unsafe blocks. On Fly.io, these combine with dockerfile missing or misconfigured and volume only available in a single region to cause deployment failures.
Can SpringCode deploy my Rust project to Fly.io?
Yes. We specialize in deploying Rust applications to Fly.io. We audit your codebase for Rust-specific issues, configure Fly.io correctly, and handle the full deployment so your app runs reliably in production.
What does Rust deployment to Fly.io cost?
Our code audit ($19) identifies all Fly.io deployment blockers in your Rust project. Full deployment assistance is scoped with a fixed quote after the audit — no hourly billing or surprise charges.
