The layers of the platform, from the machine up

Four levels of a platform from the infrastructure up, each a band with its parts as small boxes that wrap onto rows, notes in a column at the side joined by a dotted line, and two roles — critical and planned — with a badge and an outline pattern. The description reads the layers from the bottom, the table has one row per layer with its level. With a phone variant, where the notes move under the labels. Illustrative platform.
