An intake agent consumes these artifacts and extracts structured information. It can identify missing details, infer likely dependencies, categorize applications, and support target-state planning. The value is not just that this is faster than manual discovery. It can make the intake process more consistent across hundreds of applications. That matters because migration programs often fail to scale when every application becomes a custom consulting project. A good intake agent helps turn messy application data into a repeatable migration pipeline.
An IaC agent
The infrastructure-as-code agent is likely the most immediately valuable piece of the platform. Its job is to take approved architecture patterns, migration requirements, security controls, tagging standards, networking rules, identity requirements, monitoring expectations, and deployment constraints, then generate infrastructure code that engineers can review and deploy.
This is exactly where many migration teams lose time. IaC development is repetitive, but it is not trivial. Teams must define compute, storage, networking, identity and access management, security groups, observability, secrets handling, backup policies, and compliance controls. They must also align with enterprise standards that may differ by application type, business unit, geography, and regulatory requirement.
