I haven’t seen any good examples recently of workflow diagrams, at least not more technical ones based around software, services and workflow.
Creating a diagram like this its always nice to see other examples of how people have approached the problem but in this scenario I have yet to see anything. Even Edward Tufte came short on this, though the diagrams and illustrations he provides examples for are excellent.
So this is what I came up with to illustrate a workflow with our software in a newsroom environment.
