Cornerstone’s Orion AI coordinates specialized agents and reduced database diagnosis time from 45 minutes to 10; a three-person team built it in six months. The case gives engineering teams concrete outcomes to examine when designing operational agent workflows.

What: Orion AI is Cornerstone’s multi-agent system for database operations, built with Amazon Bedrock and Strands Agents.
How: A meta-orchestrator delegates work to specialized child agents; diagnosis time fell from 45 minutes to 10.
Why it matters: The hub-and-spoke design coordinates database investigations, helping engineers spend less time on manual queries and handoffs.

Orion AI routes work from its web application through an orchestrator to specialized agents. Sketched from the article's own text.
