Resilience in Amazon App Mesh

Important

End of support notice: On September 30, 2026, Amazon will discontinue support for Amazon App Mesh. After September 30, 2026, you will no longer be able to access the Amazon App Mesh console or Amazon App Mesh resources. For more information, visit this blog post Migrating from Amazon App Mesh to Amazon ECS Service Connect.

The Amazon global infrastructure is built around Amazon Regions and Availability Zones. Amazon Regions provide multiple physically separated and isolated Availability Zones, which are connected with low-latency, high-throughput, and highly redundant networking. With Availability Zones, you can design and operate applications and databases that automatically fail over between Availability Zones without interruption. Availability Zones are more highly available, fault tolerant, and scalable than traditional single or multiple data center infrastructures.

App Mesh runs its control plane instances across multiple Availability Zones to ensure high availability. App Mesh automatically detects and replaces unhealthy control plane instances, and it provides automated version upgrades and patching for them.

Disaster recovery in Amazon App Mesh

The App Mesh service manages backups of customer data. There is nothing that you need to do to manage backups. The backed-up data is encrypted.
