Vega – A declarative language for interactive visualization designs
What sort of maps are you wanting to build? https://c4model.com/ seems to be the more popular standard for this style at the moment. https://github.com/plantuml-stdlib/C4-PlantUML makes this somewhat easy to code out. (And I think most cloud providers have addons for it.)

Ask HN: Guidelines for making clear architecture diagrams
Third this. Don't look any further, just do it!
Also, PlantUML + C4 is like peanut butter & jelly:
https://github.com/plantuml-stdlib/C4-PlantUML
I'll gladly give up control of layout, and accept some ugliness, to never again have to worry about dragging boxes and arrows to be pixel-aligned, and then do it all over again when I add another box...
It looks like Mermaid has C4 support too:

Add quick sketches in emacs org mode
Yes. I use this all the time for software diagramming. With c4 model (https://github.com/plantuml-stdlib/C4-PlantUML) and AWS icons (https://github.com/awslabs/aws-icons-for-plantuml)

Architecture diagrams should be code
The C4 model (https://c4model.com/) is great for architecture diagrams. You can use different tools to generate them. Here are the ones I've been using:
- https://github.com/plantuml-stdlib/C4-PlantUML
- D2 language, open source alternative to PlantUML
- Keep your diagrams updated with continuous delivery
- What FOSS programs would you recommend for creating concept maps on Linux?
What are some alternatives?
c4-notation - Technical resources for using the C4 model for visualizing software architecture.
d2 - D2 is a modern diagram scripting language that turns text to diagrams.
mermaid - Generation of diagrams like flowcharts or sequence diagrams from text in a similar manner as markdown
