[FEATURE] Implement the PoC

[guibranco]

This issue aims to guide the creation of a microservice proof of concept (POC) in Rust, leveraging Rust's performance and safety features. Below, you'll find a step-by-step outline and references to helpful resources for building the POC.

Goals:

• Design and implement a lightweight, efficient microservice in Rust.
• Use best practices for REST API development, containerization, and production readiness.

Tasks:

1. Set up the Project

   • Create a new Rust project using cargo.
   • Add dependencies such as a web framework (e.g., Actix, Axum, or Rocket), Serde for JSON handling, and tokio for async support.

2. Design the Microservice

   • Define a basic resource (e.g., Item) and implement CRUD operations.
   • Use REST principles for API design.

3. Implement the Service

   • Build the API endpoints (e.g., /items, /items/{id}).
   • Include JSON serialization/deserialization using Serde.
   • Set up logging (e.g., using the tracing crate).

4. Handle Errors Gracefully

   • Implement structured error handling.
   • Return appropriate HTTP status codes and error messages.

5. Containerize the Microservice

   • Write a Dockerfile to containerize the Rust application.
   • Test the container locally to ensure functionality.

6. Optimize for Production

   • Follow guidelines for building a production-ready service (e.g., using optimized builds, health checks, etc.).
   • Optionally integrate metrics and monitoring tools.

7. Documentation

   • Update the README with detailed instructions on building, running, and testing the microservice.
   • Provide API examples using tools like curl or Postman.

• Template for a microservice-based on Domain Driven Design principles with Rust

Acceptance Criteria:

• A basic microservice is implemented, following the outlined steps.
• The service is functional, containerized, and documented.
• Best practices for Rust microservices are applied based on the references.
