Cloud Computing Architecture Diagrams
Cloud Computing
According to the definition of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST): "the Cloud Computing is a model for enabling ubiquitous, convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction."
The Cloud computing lets users to have access to the resources, software, and information using any device with access to Internet, at this users pay only for the consumed resources. A cloud model provides three types of services:
- Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) that provides processing storage, networks, and other computing resources where the consumer can deploy and run different software;
- Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) that offers platform layer resources to build, deploy and deliver applications into the cloud;
- Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) that provides end-user applications that are running on a cloud infrastructure.
A Cloud can have one of four types of access:
- Public Cloud - allows systems and services to be easily accessible to the general public;
- Private Cloud - allows systems and services to be accessible within an organization;
- Community Cloud - allows systems and services to be accessible by group of organizations;
- Hybrid Cloud - is combination of public, private and community cloud.
Example 1. Cloud Computing
Cloud Computing Architecture
The Cloud Computing Architecture is the configuration of the system that involves local and cloud resources, services, middleware and software, cloud clients and cloud storages, networks, geo-location. Note that the Cloud Computing Architecture is based on the needs of the end-user - the cloud consumer and describes how all these components are arranged and related.

Cloud Computing Architecture Diagram
For documenting the Cloud Computing Architecture with a goal to facilitate the communication between stakeholders are successfully used the Cloud Computing Architecture diagrams. Each Cloud Computing Architecture diagram visually depict the cloud components and relationships between them.
It is convenient and easy to draw various Cloud Computing Architecture diagrams in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software with help of tools of the Cloud Computing Diagrams Solution from the Computer and Networks Area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

Exporting Cloud Computing Architecture Diagrams
The ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software provides powerful export capabilities - you can export your diagrams to a number of useful and popular file formats. Thus you can export the diagrams to Microsoft PowerPoint (PPT), Adobe Acrobat (PDF), Microsoft Visio (VDX, VSDX), and many other formats.
Example 4. Cloud Computing Architecture Diagram PPT
All exporting commands are available at ConceptDraw DIAGRAM from the File menu. You can immediately apply them when your diagram is ready.
Example 5. Cloud Computing Architecture PDF
The possibility of exporting diagrams to various formats gives to ConceptDraw DIAGRAM users a flexibility when working with other people, because now it's not a problem to collaborate and exchange documents with those who don't have ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software.

AWS platform is great to develop reliable applications. If you are already aware of all the benefits that Amazon Web Services diagrams bring, then you'll need also a diagramming tool for architecture to share your vision. Luckily, ConceptDraw DIAGRAM has a special AWS Diagrams solution with vector icons and templates that are easy to edit.
The AWS architecture diagram, you see on this drawing, was designed using ConceptDraw Amazon Web Services Architecture Diagrams (AWS) solution. The 14 libraries, delivered with this solution introduces near 250 vector graphic images used to draw AWS Diagrams. The AWS Architecture Diagrams solution is a valuable tool for programmers, software architects and other IT professionals. It enables them to develop reliable applications with a high stage of interaction with AWS cloud.

When describing any computer network, we imagine a set of devices and nodes, arranged in some way. Talking about network structures, we should distinguish physical and logical network topologies, as physical topology is about devices location and logical topology illustrates data flow. In the same time, they do not have to match, and some devices, such as repeaters, may have a physical star layout, but a bus logical topology.
There are two main types of computer network topologies: Physical topology that show the physical organization of a network - equipment and types of connections. Star network topology involves a set of devices that is connected to a single hub (router). Ring network topology means that, devices connected according this topology have two connections, connecting with nearby devices to make a loop. Bus network topology is the topology presented at the current diagram. It is similar to a ring topology. The difference is that data moves up and down a linear connection, copying itself where network equipment works as bus-stations along the way. This network topology can be used for small network, or when adding an extra device into a network.

Creating diagrams and schemes is a pleasure with proper software. You don’t need any additional skills to create organizational chart quick and effectively with our diagramming tool. Create your ConceptDraw account today and start your diagramming experience.
This is the most regular type of organizational chart - hierarchical. It is created using the ConceptDraw Organizational Charts solution. Its composition can be displayed as a pyramid, with an only person in authority at the top, with sub-levels of management below them. According to hierarchy, an employee communicates only to his immediate head or subordinates. A hierarchical organizational structure may be choice for a businesses that work on multiform markets or any other organization that has a workflow requiring a multilevel structure of middle management.

When talking about engineering, one should define all the terms used, so anybody could understand the topic. Typical network glossary contains definitions of numerous network appliances, types of networks and cable systems. The understanding of basic is crucial for server management, network administration and investigating problems.
The network glossary defines terms related to networking and communications. The most of glossary items has their visual representation in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM libraries of the Computer Network Diagrams solution. This illustration presents a local area network (LAN) diagram. It designed to show the way the interaction of network devices in a local network. The diagram uses a library containing symbols of network equipment, connections and the end-point devices such as network printer, hubs, server, modem and finally computers (PC, mac, laptop). This diagram depicts a physical LAN topology.

A workflow diagram is less general notation than a process flow diagram. Workflow as a term can apply to organizational process which involves people, resources, documents, sort of data, for instance; whereas a process is general collection of steps occuring in any sort of activity. That is why process flow diagram can be used as workflow diagram to describe business process, data flow or department interactions.
The fastest way to create a workflow diagram is using pre-designed workflow template. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM with the Workflow Diagrams solution delivers rich set of workflow diagram templates you may start from.

If we divide computer networks by scale, we get several main categories. The smallest network is PAN, as it connects personal devices themselves, and as the number of users grows, a local area network can be recognized, and campus area networks (CAN) connects several local networks located within some area like a university or a corporation. Computers connected to CAN share public educational materials and list of CAN network examples includes such prestigious universities like Stanford and Carnegie Mellon.
This is an example of a computer network diagram created for a campus area network. It was created using using ConceptDraw solution for the Computer and Network diagramming. The specific of this sample campus network is its distribution. It is rather broad to embrace a big campus territory. This diagram can be applied as a template for designing custom area network topology diagram for a particular educational institution.
