New platform combines FinOps, architectural expertise, and AI optimization to help enterprises scale AI solutions efficiently on AWS
Mission, a CDW company and US-based Amazon Web Services (AWS) Premier Tier Services Partner, announced the launch of Mission AI Gateway, a new software platform that helps enterprises manage and optimize their AI solutions on AWS.
A recent survey revealed that 90% of CIOs identify AI cost management as a critical barrier to realizing value from their AI initiatives. Simultaneously, only 12% of IT professionals say they have the skills to manage AI workloads properly. With 82% of companies under pressure to accelerate AI adoption, enterprises face multiple challenges: optimizing the performance and security of their AI solutions while maintaining cost efficiency. Mission AI Gateway addresses these challenges by combining advanced optimization capabilities with strategic architectural guidance and AI expertise to enhance performance, security, and cost efficiency.
Mission AI Gateway combines advanced FinOps capabilities, infrastructure operations expertise, and strategic architectural guidance to ensure AI solutions remain aligned with AWS best practices. The platform integrates with Mission Control, Mission’s cloud services platform, to provide comprehensive visibility and management across AI workloads.
“Enterprises are rapidly scaling their AI initiatives on AWS, but optimizing performance, security, and cost remains a significant challenge,” said Ted Stuart, President and COO of Mission. “Mission AI Gateway solves these critical pain points. Combining our deep AWS expertise with AI-specific tooling and guidance enables organizations to enhance their AI solutions’ performance while maintaining cost efficiency. This approach ensures companies can scale their AI initiatives with confidence.”

“We were immediately impressed with Mission’s expertise both on AWS and with generative AI,” said Tom Lucas, Co-Founder and Director of MagellanTV. “Working with Mission has not only provided much needed AWS expertise to ensure our business is secure, reliably online, and optimized, but also to build out a bleeding-edge machine learning pipeline on top of AWS cognitive services. Partnering with Mission enables us to achieve a long-held goal for MagellanTV, which is to massively expand the reach of our documentary platform and strengthen our position as a truly global company.”
