time. A compile-only component is the one that is meaningful
only at compile time similarly the runtime component in this
case would be an executable program.
Deployment Diagram - Physical Architecture
The deployment diagram captures information about the
infrastructure characteristics. Naming specific machines,
vendors, or routers may not be essential, as these decisions
change so quickly. Do indicate a vendor/machine-agnostic
way the resources you expect to be deployed in order to
support the architecture namely CPUs, RAM, network
requirements, disk configuration, and so on and then provide
concrete examples of a specific vendor/machine combination
that satisfies your theoretical capacity prediction. Although
the resources deemed necessary will vary from one scenario
to the next, the fundamental resources themselves will not.
These are as follows:
• CPUs (number of cores, clock speed)
• RAM (quantity in GB)
• Network (minimum interface speed)
• Storage (disk/SAN configuration)
Deployment diagram puts it altogether and captures the
configuration of the runtime elements of the application. This
diagram is obviously most useful when an application is
complete and ready to be deployed. Depicts the nodes i.e., a
JEE
server,
a
database
server
it
accesses,
and
the
user
workstation used to access the JEE application.
