A type safe and memory safe language, like rust? Or their own c# perhaps?

Python is a memory and typesafe language.

Also, AWS is 10 years older than Rust, and C# only runs on Windows (at least it certainly only did when AWS was created, and is laughably more difficult to get running on Linux or OSX than Python).

$(dotnet publish) <https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/deploying/sing...> is the way they solve that problem in modern .net

And, unlike the scripting language you mentioned, most of the languages on the CLR actually are statically typed

That may work now, but it didn't exist when AWS was started.
