AWS architecture diagram Confluence: what to use it for
Create editable diagrams that live near the Confluence documentation they explain. diagram.now focuses on practical technical and business visuals: flowcharts, UML, BPMN, ERD, mind maps, cloud architecture, network diagrams, and wireframes.
Common use cases
Cloud migrations
Compare current and target states for AWS, Azure, or GCP migration planning.
Runbooks
Add service dependency diagrams to incident response and operational procedures.
Security reviews
Visualize boundaries, data flows, access paths, and key controls before review.
Explain architecture where decisions live
Cloud diagrams are most useful when they sit next to the decision, runbook, or migration note they explain. Teams can review the architecture and text in one place.
Use current-state and target-state views
For migrations and refactors, include two focused diagrams rather than one overloaded canvas. This makes risk and sequencing easier to discuss.
Document operational context
Add short notes for ownership, alerts, dependencies, and failure modes so the diagram supports real operations, not just presentation.
