The prompt behind this diagram

Create a system architecture diagram for a typical web-based software platform. Include a client layer (web browser, mobile app), an API gateway, a load balancer, an application server layer with three microservices (user service, order service, notification service), a message queue, a primary relational database, a caching layer, and an external third-party payment service. Show request flow from clients through the gateway to services, service-to-database connections, and asynchronous communication via the message queue.

Paste your own description (or Terraform / docker-compose / SQL schema) into draft1 and get a diagram like this for your exact system.
