It's interesting to see how AWS is handling the deprecation of App Mesh, especially the complete removal of access to resources on the shutdown date. This certainly raises concerns for those relying on it for service mesh management. As teams consider migration strategies, it might be beneficial to evaluate alternatives like Istio or Linkerd early on, as they can offer similar capabilities while ensuring a smoother transition. If you're looking for engineering support to navigate this migration or implement a new solution, I’d be glad to discuss a paid collaboration. What has been your team's initial response to this timeline?
