Recommendations for Service mesh if Istio has the features but not App Mesh or lattice. Any concerns with the self-managed approach.

Question

Hi Folks,

I wanted to check if anyone has run into this with respect Service Mesh. Based on requirements, we need Istio but there is no managed service offering on AWS for Istio, team is concerned about upgrade/management. Any advice to make the upgrade/management seamless to app owners.
Has anyone evaluated Tetrate or a similar product for Service mesh.

Thanks
Sunil S

Answer

What are the features in Istio you need ?

Answer

Tetrate is available as a [marketplace](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/eks-add-ons.html) add-on for EKS providing the ability for customers to purchase support of their Istio solution from Tetrate.
