It links to an Amazon case study:

(which then links back to the map)

It was made by Miles Ward on the AWS team but you can made a similar one at http://www.madeiracloud.com/ (and provision directly from the diagram / overlay monitoring info)

That is your logic? I don't care if this infrastructure could send Obama back in time; it doesn't mean it is right for your needs. Some people glorify "successful" architectures, but it is at least as important (if not more so) to pay attention to your particulars.

The diagram follows the style of the AWS Reference Architectures[0]. I have yet to find a published set of diagram components that compare well to that style.
Edit: Juan Domenech[1] has a small custom made component pallet in png form. And, it looks like the original diagrams are custom Adobe Illustrator drawings[2].

#8Man, I didn't realize big sites were this complex under the hood. That site wasn't even complicated; if I recall correctly it was just some info pages and payment. I don't know anything about backend stuff. All my projects are like this:
[traffic] -> [hosted server] -> [Amazon CloudFront files]

I believe this includes all of their internal tools for campaigning and organizing and suchlike, not just the public website.
