Also if you want to assess how secure inter service traffic could be achieved without a lot of custom writing, AWS App Mesh is a fine solution.

We rated AWS App Mesh as part of a comparison with Microsoft Azure AKS + Istio. While we rated its usability 6/10, recognizing its strengths in AWS-native integration, the difficult learning curve and limited flexibility made it less appealing for broader use. Also AWS announced the retirement of AWS App Mesh by the end of this year.
