Migrate from AWS Appmesh to Enterprise-Ready Istio

If you're looking to migrate from AWS Appmesh to the most widely-deployed service mesh, Tetrate's got you covered with Tetrate Istio Subscription.

A service mesh is an infrastructure layer that manages service communication in a transparent and language-independent way. It helps to configure how service instances perform critical actions such as service discovery, load balancing, data encryption, and authentication and authorization.

There are several well known projects/products today, e.g. istio, AWS Appmesh, Kuma, linkerd etc. Each project has its own advantages and disadvantages. It's often hard to change/migrate from one to another.

TIM (Tetrate Istio Migration toolkit) is a tool used to help you to migrate from another service mesh to Istio, based on the TID add-on for Amazon EKS.
