Boosting Rust developer productivity with cursor - Our journey at ilert

AI-assisted coding has evolved from a novelty into an industry standard. At ilert, we started our adoption in mid-2023, quickly realizing that success depends heavily on proper context and workflows. This is particularly acute with Rust. While the language is central to our backend infrastructure, its strict compiler rules and distinct idiomatic approaches make it notoriously difficult for modern LLMs to master.

AI for App Resiliency: Automation Without Operational Chaos

Enterprise IT leaders face a persistent contradiction. Digital systems grow more complex each year, but operational stability and resilience do not improve at the same pace. Downtime costs are only the visible part of the problem. For large enterprises, unplanned outages can run into hundreds of thousands of dollars per hour in lost revenue, productivity, and remediation effort. The harder cost to quantify is the reputational damage when critical business services fail at the worst possible time.

How to Reduce Latency in Your Multicloud Environment

Learn what causes high multicloud latency, and how you can reduce it with a few simple methods – no hardware deployment required. Latency is usually one of those problems that shows up before anyone has time to go looking for it – and troubleshooting it can feel like you’re aiming for a moving target.

Why business context is the missing link in engineering performance

Think about the last time your team shipped something impressive. It was probably on time, clean code, and had great metrics. And yet somewhere along the way, the business priorities had shifted, and what the team delivered was no longer the top priority. The work was solid, but the direction just wasn't quite right anymore. This is usually what happens when engineers are disconnected from business context.

Secure access at the speed of incident response

Picture this: it's 2am, your pager goes off, and you're staring at a production database that's on fire. You know exactly what's wrong. You know exactly how to fix it. But you can't touch anything because you're waiting on someone to approve your access request. Meanwhile, your customers are down, your SLAs are bleeding out, and you're refreshing Slack hoping someone in security is awake to click "approve." This is the incident response tax that too many teams pay.

Kubernetes Node Vs. Pod Vs. Cluster: What's The Difference?

Kubernetes is increasingly the standard for deploying, running, and maintaining cloud-native applications running in containers. Kubernetes (K8s) automates most container management tasks, empowering engineers to manage high-performing, modern applications at scale. Meanwhile, surveys from VMware and Gartner reveal that insufficient Kubernetes expertise prevents many organizations from fully adopting containerization. Understanding how Kubernetes components work removes this barrier.

Why Site Performance Metrics Are the Missing Piece in Your Local SEO Strategy

Most conversations about local SEO start and end with Google Business Profiles, reviews, and citations. And sure, those things matter. But there's a whole layer of the ranking equation that gets ignored by marketing teams because it lives on the ops side of the house. Site performance, server response times, uptime consistency, and how your infrastructure handles traffic spikes during peak local search hours. These aren't just IT concerns anymore. They have a direct line to whether your business shows up when someone searches "plumber near me" at 9 PM on a Tuesday.

Top 10 ChatGPT SEO Agencies for 2026 (Manually Reviewed)

A funny shift has appeared in our conversations with marketing leaders over the last year. Teams still ask for SEO help. But more often, the question is: "Who can help us appear inside ChatGPT answers, and can they prove it without hand-waving?" People research inside ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and AI Overviews, then click only when they trust the source. If your brand is not cited, clearly understood as the right entity, and consistent across your site and the wider web, even strong pages can stay invisible when buyers are deciding.
