Google Cloud Architecture Diagram

1. Creating a shared design workspace

Open a Creately workspace and add your team members and stakeholders as collaborators with edit access or reviewers, allowing them to work on the GCP diagram with you in real-time.

2. Planning and requirement gathering

With the help of the stakeholders involved, gather requirements including the information on the scope and the budget for the cloud infrastructure.

3. Creating a high-level architecture diagram

The team will then create a high-level diagram of the architecture, which will serve as a foundation for more detailed diagrams. Select a template from Creately’s extensive templates library for Google cloud architecture. You can also start visualizing the cloud infrastructure from scratch using the GCP icons in the Google cloud category in the shapes library.

4. Detailed design and diagramming

Using the high-level architecture as a guide, the team can create detailed diagrams of the individual GCP components and how they interact with each other. Add and remove the components as required for the infrastructure. Use the drag-drop capabilities and plus create to easily move and create the cloud infrastructure.

5. Review and feedback

Share the diagrams with other stakeholders and gather feedback on the design using contextual comments. This feedback will be used to make revisions to the architecture as needed.

6. Iteration and validation

Iterate on the design and make revisions as needed based on feedback and testing. Validate the design to ensure that it meets the project requirements and any regulatory or compliance standards.

7. Deployment and maintenance

Once the design is finalized and validated, it can be deployed into production and then maintained over time. Use version history to keep track of revisions.
