Hi, Lewis. I think that diagram shows "what applications run natively in Hadoop". For that, I find Gora does not fit in it. As data access layer, Gora would be present in components diagrams or in an internal software architecture.
I attach a diagram of my point of view (view stolen from Nutch) as "gora_example_diagram.png". If I can't attach the diagram I will upload later somewhere else. Other alternative idea I find a little bit "forced" is notice the optional (mandatory in some cases) to access data through Gora in several applications, mixing that "applications diagram" with "data access information". For that, I attach "aplicaciones_y_datos.png" as an example.I am not convinced about this proposed diagram, but it's definitely interesting for showing where Gora can be used. Thanks to you and I hope your thread will arrise better ideas than mine ones!
