Note

When creating a deployment diagram, it is important to use the correct notation for various elements:

• Artifacts: these are created as outcomes of system development and are the final pieces to put together.
• Nodes: nodes are one of the most important aspects of the deployment diagram, Nodes are deployment targets that contain artifacts available for execution, they look like 3D boxes.
• Relations: Relations typically denote a communication path or a dependency between elements.
• Manifistation: this is a subset of relationships where artifacts are the physical realization of a software component.
