DevOps Diagrams

Free Mermaid diagrams covering CI/CD pipelines, Git workflows, infrastructure, observability, incident management and more.

DevOps bridges software development and IT operations through automation, collaboration, and continuous feedback. Mastering the pipelines and workflows at the heart of DevOps is essential for shipping reliable software at speed.

This collection covers the full DevOps lifecycle. The delivery path starts with CI Pipeline — triggered on every commit — and continues through Build Pipeline, Artifact Storage Pipeline, and the CD Pipeline that carries builds to production. The Deployment Approval Flow and Environment Promotion Flow show how changes move through dev, staging, and production gates safely.

Source control workflows are covered by Git Workflow, Git Branch Strategy, and Pull Request Workflow. Infrastructure patterns include Infrastructure Provisioning, Infrastructure Drift Detection, and Rollback Deployment for when things go wrong.

On the operational side, the observability triad is covered by Observability Pipeline, Metrics Collection, and Log Aggregation Pipeline. Incident workflows — Alerting Workflow, Incident Management Flow, and Disaster Recovery Plan — complete the reliability picture. Security is addressed through Backup Verification and Secrets Rotation Workflow. Every diagram is free to edit and export in Graphlet.

Frequently asked questions

A DevOps diagram visualizes a pipeline, workflow, or operational process — such as a CI/CD pipeline, Git branching strategy, or incident response flow — as a flowchart or sequence diagram. These diagrams make abstract automation legible for both engineers and stakeholders.
Mermaid diagrams are written as plain text that renders to a visual chart, making them easy to version-control alongside code. DevOps teams use them to document pipelines, onboard new engineers, and keep runbooks up to date without needing a separate diagramming tool.
The collection spans the full DevOps lifecycle: continuous integration and delivery, Git source control workflows, artifact management, infrastructure as code, environment promotion, observability, alerting, incident management, disaster recovery, and secrets rotation.
CI (Continuous Integration) validates every code change automatically — running tests and building artifacts on each commit. CD (Continuous Delivery/Deployment) takes a validated artifact and automates its release through staging and production environments, often with approval gates between stages.
Infrastructure as code (Terraform, Pulumi) declares and provisions cloud resources — networks, compute, databases — from scratch. Configuration management (Ansible, Chef) installs software and applies settings to existing servers. Modern DevOps teams often use both: IaC to provision infrastructure and configuration management to configure the software running on it.
