Layout Pattern

Hub and Spoke

Central node with radiating connections. Shows one-to-many relationships clearly.

CentralNetworkModel

How to Use It

Use hub-and-spoke when there is a single center and multiple peripheral nodes connected to it - a platform and its integrations, a headquarters and its regions, a product and its add-ons. Put the hub at center with its label, and spokes radiating out with labeled end nodes. 5-8 spokes reads cleanly; more gets crowded. Distinct from a general network diagram because the topology is strictly radial, not mesh.
