We’re building a visual design platform for cloud infrastructure. We’ve just released our public preview which allows you to diagram solutions for AWS, Azure and GCP for free. Included out of the box are the latest icons for each platform and we offer a streamlined experience for creating cloud infrastructure diagrams versus generic drawing tools.

We’d love to hear your feedback!

I've always wanted a infrastructure diagram tool that would actually create the architecture using my AWS account. How feasible is that?

cloudcraft.co supports this (on their paid plan), and there are also some open source tools like cloudmapper (only for AWS): https://github.com/duo-labs/cloudmapper

We're currently working hard on exactly this feature :)

There is also cloundcraft.co [1] which I have been using for a year or so now and would recommend.

1. https://cloudcraft.co/

CloudCraft is quite nice, I first saw it used here [^1]. Seeing diagrams drawn out in perspective is extremely useful.

AWS has one, though I found it too clunky to actually use

1. Examples. 5+. Draw in a user.

2. On prem installs need to be fully creatable. Draw in smaller users. 'Azure' can be on self hosted on prem. Small and medium businesses dwarf large businesses for new Azure sales.

congratulations on the launch!
