Does AI write for you, or do you write for AI?

We talked to Inna Marchenko, an Information Development expert, about what it actually takes to build a RAG-ready knowledge base: self-contained chunks, smart metadata, and clear documentation of what's included and excluded.

As Inna puts it: "It is not a question of whether AI writes for you or you write for AI, because the answer is both."

Observability isn't just about better dashboards. It's about reducing the cost of unreliable software.

Slow incident resolution, recurring failures, and fragmented tools carry real business costs — often bigger than teams realise.

Our latest article breaks down how observability turns from a technical expense into a measurable business investment.

👉 Read on for where the savings come from and how to build the business case:

Today, Ukraine honours the memory of those who gave their lives to protect the country’s independence. For everyone at ELEKS, this day is deeply personal; we lost our own.

Caching in WordPress sounds simple until you try to get it right.

We talked to Zoia Rashevska, Senior PHP Software Developer at ELEKS, about how object cache, page cache, and CDN work together: what each layer does, the right order to set them up, and how to invalidate cache without breaking things.

This year ELEKS turns 35. 🎉

Anniversaries often call for lists of milestones. We prefer to celebrate the people behind every success.

The engineers who joined as juniors and now lead their own teams. The colleagues who supported each other through demanding projects and difficult times, and became friends along the way. The partners and clients who trusted us with their most ambitious projects and stayed, some of them for over 20 years.

Thank you for building this story with us. We look forward to writing the next chapters together!

🇺🇦 Happy Independence Day, Ukraine!

Today, we celebrate Ukraine’s strength and unbreakable spirit. You can see this spirit in the soldiers who protect our country, in the volunteers who give selflessly, and in everyone who holds on to freedom.

We are proud to be a company with Ukrainian roots. We hope to see Ukraine free from war, thriving in peace, standing tall on its own terms, and we will do everything we can to help make this happen.

None of this is carried alone. Thank you to our partners and clients around the world who have supported Ukraine during its hardest times. Your support means more than words can express.

Slava Ukraini! 💙💛

🔐Defenders must be right every time. Attackers only need to get lucky once.

That gap between discovering a vulnerability and fixing it is one of the most dangerous windows in software today.

Mykyta Tereshkin explores OpenAI's new Daybreak initiative: AI that scans codebases, maps attack paths, and auto-generates patches before anyone exploits them. Autonomous in analysis, but with humans in the loop at deployment.

Is RAG just a fancy search that costs 10x more and lies confidently?

Such quotes often spring from underestimating RAG or simply not knowing its aspects. While RAG might seem simple, it is anything but. Poor chunking, weak retrieval, irrelevant context, query ambiguity, data quality, security, and evaluation can quickly transform a promising RAG system into a costly generator of unreliable answers.

In our latest deep dive, Volodymyr Getmanskyi, our Head of Artificial Intelligence Office, unpacks 20 components that can make RAG systems more accurate, reliable, secure, and production-ready.

Learn what RAG is and explore its key components that help create reliable, accurate, and cost-effective systems.

Vibe coding → agentic engineering. The shift is simple: from “AI helps me code” to “I direct AI agents to build.”

Agents can now plan, code, test, and iterate. But the engineer still owns the architecture, quality, security, and outcome.

We sat down with Stanislav Kostenich, Senior Software Developer in AI Engineering, to discuss what agentic engineering looks like in practice and how it differs from vibe coding.
