**Service Mesh** is a solution which makes service to service communication more comfortable and more secure in large microservice architectures.
It decouples the routing part from the microservices which allows a service mesh implementation to offer features like:
- Service Discovery (canary routing, a-b testing, etc.)
- Resilience (circuit breaking, timeouts, etc.)
- Observability (route metrics, traffic logging, etc.)
- End-to-end encryption (mTLS)
service mesh implementations:
- [Istio](https://istio.io/)
- [Open Service Mesh](https://openservicemesh.io/)
- [Kuma](https://kuma.io/)
- and many more...
At AOE we are using service meshes in multiple projects and are assessing best-practices and service mesh implementations.
