- Include diagrams in design documents and architectural decision records (ADRs)
- Version control: Commit changes to track architectural evolution
- Review: Have diagrams reviewed by technical leads and security teams
- Currency: Update when infrastructure or security posture changes
- Accessibility: Provide alt text and descriptions for diagrams
- Documentation: Link from relevant runbooks and design docs
