This is really great - I'd love to have a similar diagram for data flow and components of the systems I work on. It might not benefit engineers very much but it'd be fantastic for clients or some of the less technical people in the company.

I wonder how hard (I'm thinking hard?) it would be to have a tool for something like this, making the layout easy and revealing more and more information as you zoom in.

Even better if it was live and updating with system metrics.

Yeah it looks kind of cool, but kinda hard to read. Is this graphic based on something else?

I would like to see one where the labels are clearer. It doesn't seem like the 3D perspective adds any clarity.
