An architecture diagram helps provide an overview of the components and processes needed for a Model API and Data Preparation system. It includes items such as the system’s components like sensors, databases, machine learning pipelines, and model APIs; data flows between systems--that is, what data elements are used from where and how it is transferred from one system to another; the order of processes—what needs to be done first, second, last, etc.; security protocols for authenticating access to the systems; and other control measures like rate limiting APIs calls or policies regarding access to data.
