TerrellCloud.io has been helping clients design and implement cloud and generative AI systems since 2021. This blog is where we start writing that work down.

Consulting engagements generate a lot of hard-won, reusable knowledge: architecture patterns that survive contact with production, GenAI designs that hold up after the demo, cost lessons learned the expensive way. Most of it stays trapped in private decks and retro documents. We’d rather put the general lessons here, where clients and technical peers can use them.

What to expect

Posts will stay close to the work:

  • Cloud architecture — designs, reviews, migrations, and the trade-offs behind them.
  • Generative AI systems — RAG, agents, evaluation, and what it takes to run GenAI in production rather than in a notebook.
  • Consulting practice — how we scope engagements, ask questions, and decide what’s worth building.

No release-note filler, no thinly veiled product pitches. If a post wouldn’t be useful to a technical peer, it doesn’t ship.

If any of this maps to a problem you’re working on, the about page explains how we engage. Otherwise — welcome, and enjoy the archive as it grows.
