The diagrams used in MEGA Architecture help you to design the architecture of your information systems.
Depending on your goals, modeling can provide you with a global approach for your entire information system, or for one of its sub-systems.
Similarly, modeling it can give you a software-oriented view, focusing on the applications, flows of information, and structures used to save data, or a hardware-oriented view that highlights the technical elements.
To address these requirements, MEGA Architecture offers three types of diagram:
• Application Architecture Diagram for a software-oriented view of the information system.
• Technical Infrastructure Diagram, for a technical and hardware-oriented view of the information system.
• Applications Tree to indicate the hierarchy of the software components of an Application.
