Chose AWS App Mesh
Istio is high on operational costs as compared to AppMesh. HIgher learning curve for ISTIO as compared to AppMesh. Multi cluster support in AWS. App Mesh has IAM integration which is a plus for AWS workloads.

AWS App MeshTetrate Cloud
Likelihood to Recommend
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.

Usability
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.

We conducted a comparative comparison between AWS App Mesh and Azure AKS with Istio to better understand strengths, weaknesses and architectural differences between two services. While it provided a more managed and integrated experience, its feature limitations and upcoming retirement led us to continue building AKS + Istio. AKS + Istio offers more flexibility, extensibility, and community support.
