The 'crypto' module is a built-in Node.js module that provides cryptographic functionality that includes a set of wrappers for OpenSSL's hash, HMAC, cipher, decipher, sign, and verify functions. Unlike @aws-sdk/hash-node, it is built into Node.js and does not require an additional installation. It offers a wider range of cryptographic functions but might be more complex to use for simple hashing needs.
Hasha is a high-performance Node.js hashing module that makes it easy to create hash digests of data. It supports multiple algorithms and can hash strings, buffers, and streams. Compared to @aws-sdk/hash-node, hasha is more focused on simplicity and ease of use for hashing operations, without the broader AWS SDK context.
