In the static architecture relationship diagrams, the “FROM” application is the receiving application and the “TO” is the sender. Should it not be the other way round - “FROM” be the application that is sending the data to the “TO” application?

For example if an application A sends customer information to another Application B, then should the arrow point from A to B? We can label the relationship to be the actual information being sent (in this case customer information).

Hi Charu,

The relationships on those diagrams represent a dependency. That is, A depends on B (from A to B). In such as relationship, any Information flows from B to A - since A depends on B for that information.

Hope this helps to clarify things
