CI/CD Pipeline Diagram

MermaidShip with confidence. This template shows how code moves from a commit to customers —through source control, automated builds, testing, staging, and production — with clear hand-offs and helpful notifications along the way. Your whole team can read at a glance, whether you’re designing a new pipeline, documenting an existing one, or spotting where your deployment process could flow better.
How to create a CI/CD Pipeline Diagram
To create a CI/CD pipeline diagram, follow these steps:
01.
Identify pipeline stages
Define the key phases your code moves through — from source control to production (e.g., build, test, staging, deployment).
02.
Determine system boundaries
Clearly specify what's inside your pipeline and what external systems it connects to (e.g., Slack notifications, storage services).
03.
List actions
Identify the main events or processes that happen at each stage (e.g., "Trigger build," "Run unit tests," "Push to registry").', 'Create nodes: Add boxes or shapes representing each component — developers, servers, environments, and services.
04.
Create nodes
Add boxes or shapes representing each component — developers, servers, environments, and services.
05.
Add connection arrows
Use arrows to represent the flow between stages, labeling them with the actions or triggers that move the process forward.
06.
Order the flow
Arrange your pipeline from left to right (or top to bottom), showing the chronological sequence from code commit to production deployment.
07.
Refine & validate
Review the diagram with your DevOps team to ensure it accurately reflects your actual deployment process.
08.
Review & share
Share the diagram with your team for onboarding, documentation, or process improvement discussions.

A network flow diagram for captive portal authentication in an educational institution — showing how student devices move through 802.1X/RADIUS authentication, dynamic VLAN assignment, and captive portal fallback. Two paths are modeled: authenticated devices go straight to the student VLAN; unauthenticated BYOD devices hit the quarantine VLAN and get redirected to the portal. Built for IT administrators and network architects who need to document or communicate their access control architecture.
