Bitstream Canvas

Visual infrastructure diagramming — forkable labs, production-ready exports, and team collaboration.

The drafting board

Bitstream Canvas bridges the gap between systems design and implementation. Designed specifically for the engineers reading the Journal, Canvas provides a robust, code-first approach to drafting your cloud architecture with total precision.

Core capabilities

Infrastructure as Nodes

Live

Drag and drop exact replicas of AWS, GCP, and Azure services. Configure their internals instantly without leaving the canvas.

Diagram Sandbox

Beta

Test connectivity rules and security group logic before you ever write a line of Terraform. Validate architectures visually.

Export to Code

Coming Soon

Once your diagram is perfectly architected, export it directly into HCL, Pulumi typescript, or standard CloudFormation templates.

Collaborative Drafting

Live

Share your workspace with your entire engineering team. Leave comments on specific nodes and approve architectural changes.
