Enabling Cross-Cluster Routing and Observability

Now that our services are communicating across clusters using App Mesh and Cloud Map, it’s time to elevate the setup with production-grade features, including ingress and egress gateways to enable secure and controlled traffic routing between clusters, TLS and mTLS encryption to secure service-to-service communication, and advanced traffic policies such as retries, circuit breakers, and fine-grained routing controls. We’ll also integrate observability tooling like Prometheus, Grafana, and AWS X-Ray to gain deep visibility into mesh traffic, performance, and reliability.
