What is UML Deployment Diagram?

Use a deployment diagram (deployment diagram: An implementation diagram that shows the structure of a run-time system. From it, you can learn about the physical relationships among software and hardware components and the distribution of components to processing nodes.) to show the structure of the run-time system and communicate how the hardware and software elements that make up an application will be configured and deployed.

In Edraw Professional, the UML Deployment Diagrams template and shapes are in the Software folder.

Who can use them and how?

• Software developers: Represent software applications using the Unified Modeling Language (UML) notation.
• Software developers: Illustrate and interpret software application relationships, actions, and connections.
• Program managers: Show high-level static software structures in presentations and specification documentation.
