Flow Direction
Choose one primary direction:
- Left-to-Right (LTR): Best for data pipelines, request flows. Users/clients on left, data stores on right.
- Top-to-Bottom (TTB): Best for layered architectures. Clients at top, infrastructure at bottom.
Layout Algorithm
- Identify layers: Group components by role (clients, gateways, services, data, infrastructure)
- Assign columns (LTR) or rows (TTB): One layer per column/row
- Within each layer: Stack components vertically (LTR) or horizontally (TTB), 40px gap minimum
- Region boundaries: Draw around groups that share infrastructure (e.g., "AWS us-east-1", "Kubernetes Cluster")
- Connectors: Route arrows between layers. For buses/queues between layers, place a thin connector bar in the gap.
Typical Layer Structure (LTR)
Col 1 (x=40) Col 2 (x=250) Col 3 (x=460) Col 4 (x=670)
┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐ ┌──────────┐
│ Client │────▶│ Gateway │─────▶│ Services │─────▶│ Database │
│ Layer │ │ Layer │ │ Layer │ │ Layer │
└──────────┘ └──────────┘ └──────────┘ └──────────┘
Column spacing: 200-220px between column starts. Adjust if components are wider.
Typical Layer Structure (TTB)
Row 1 (y=60): [ Browser ] [ Mobile App ] [ API Client ]
Row 2 (y=160): [ Load Balancer / API Gateway ]
Row 3 (y=280): [ Auth Svc ] [ User Svc ] [ Order Svc ]
Row 4 (y=400): [ Redis ] [ PostgreSQL ] [ S3 Bucket ]
Row spacing: 120-140px between row starts.
Connection Routing
- Prefer straight horizontal or vertical lines
- For connections that would cross components, use two-segment (L-shaped) paths:
<path d="M x1,y1 L midX,y1 L midX,y2" fill="none" stroke="#64748b" marker-end="url(#arrow)"/> - For busy diagrams, use
stroke-opacity="0.6"on less important connections - Label important connections with a text element near the midpoint
Message Bus / Event Bus Pattern
When services communicate through a shared bus, draw it as a horizontal bar between the service layer:
Services: [ Svc A ] [ Svc B ] [ Svc C ]
│ │ │
Bus: ════╪══════════════╪════════════╪═══════
│ │ │
Data: [ DB A ] [ DB B ] [ Cache ]
Use the Connector color (orange) for the bus bar.
Multi-Region / Multi-Cloud
Nest region boundaries:
- Outer boundary: Cloud provider (AWS, GCP)
- Inner boundary: Region or VPC
- Innermost: Availability zones or subnets
Use different dash patterns to distinguish nesting levels:
- Outer:
stroke-dasharray="12,4" - Middle:
stroke-dasharray="8,4" - Inner:
stroke-dasharray="4,4"
