Overview

The Infrastructure overlay provides a broad overview of your cloud environment by grouping resources into Account, Region, and VPC. This is the default view when opening a Cloudcraft diagram.

Infrastructure overlay in Cloudcraft.

Use cases

The Infrastructure overlay is ideal for:

  • Generating architecture diagrams for documentation or presentations
  • Troubleshooting connectivity and resource relationships
  • Conducting high-level architecture reviews
  • Onboarding team members to your cloud environment

Resource grouping

Resources are organized in a hierarchical structure:

  • Account: Top-level grouping by AWS account
  • Region: Resources grouped by geographic region within each account
  • VPC: Resources grouped by Virtual Private Cloud within each region

This hierarchy helps you understand how resources are distributed across your cloud infrastructure.

Interact with resources

Click any resource to open a side panel with additional details, including:

  • Resource type and name
  • Associated tags
  • Links to related Datadog views

Excluded components

To reduce visual clutter and highlight the most important parts of your architecture, the Infrastructure overlay excludes certain components by default:

  • EBS volumes
  • NAT Gateways
  • Transit Gateways

These components are still part of your infrastructure but are hidden to keep the diagram focused on core resources.
