A Data Migration Consultancy Cut Validation From Weeks to Days — With a Two-Agent Assistant at About $0.40 a Run
Consultants without SQL skills now run expert-level validation, and small engagements become worth taking. Caveats: the client is unnamed, figures are early production data, and no hours or headcount numbers were given.

A data migration consultancy depended on a small group of expensive experts to validate client data. Juniors waited on them, SQL errors crept in, onboarding took months, and small clients weren't profitable. Mission Cloud built two agents on Amazon Bedrock AgentCore: one walks consultants through a nine-step validation workflow, the other turns plain-English questions into SQL.
What the numbers say
- ~$0.02 per natural-language SQL query
- ~$0.40 per validation run
- Validation cycles: weeks or months → days
- 2–3 months from pilot to production
Operator takeaway
This is the professional-services version of the problem: knowledge lives in a few senior heads. Encode the checklist, keep human review at the checkpoints, and scope the agent's write access tightly (here, session data only). The design is deliberately simple: the page the consultant is on decides which agent answers, so there's no extra model call to guess intent.
Caveat: an AWS partner blog about an unnamed client; results are early production data with no hours or headcount figures.
