A Deployed Artifact in a Deployment Diagram represents a concrete piece of software or data that is deployed on a Node. It can be an executable file, a library, a database, or any other software component that is part of the system deployment.
With Deployed Artifacts in Modeldraw's Deployment Diagram, you can:
Show what software components are deployed on each Node
Represent specific files, databases, or applications in your system
Illustrate how software is distributed across different hardware or environments
Provide a detailed view of what runs on each part of your system
Map software components to their physical or virtual locations
A Deployed Artifact in Modeldraw's Deployment Diagram tool is typically represented by a rectangle with the artifact's name inside, placed within a Node. Key points to understand about Deployed Artifacts include:
Deployed Artifacts are always contained within Nodes, showing where they are deployed.
Can represent various types of software or data (e.g., executables, libraries, databases, configuration files).
Each artifact should be named to clearly identify what software component it represents.
A Node can contain multiple Deployed Artifacts.
Artifacts can have dependencies on other artifacts, though this may not be directly represented in the diagram.
To create a Deployed Artifact in Modeldraw's Deployment Diagram:
Select the Deployed Artifact tool from the shape toolbox.
Click on the Node where you want to add the Deployed Artifact. The Artifact will appear inside the Node.
Remember that Deployed Artifacts should represent actual software components or data that are deployed on the Nodes in your system.
