Useful in scenarios where we use a complex microservices-based implementation with the complexity of inter-service communication. Can use App Mesh with services running on any compute services such as Amazon ECS, Amazon EKS, and Amazon EC2. Can be used to isolate errors and pinpoint the error location and also to re-route.

VBlock is extremely well-suited for reliable delivery of virtualized mixed workloads. VBlock provides necessary hardware abstraction that allows for, uninterrupted by hardware failures, continuous delivery of critical services that otherwise do not provide hardware failure resiliency. VBlock is not the best solution from a financial standpoint for cost-sensitive solutions that are programmed for software resiliency.
