# Reference architectures
<a name="reference-architectures"></a>

 This section provides three levels of conceptual architectures that address the requirements outlined previously: 
+  The Network layer 
+  The Application layer 
+  The Data layer 

 Architecture examples for each layer can be modified or used as-is, or combined together to build solutions that address multiple requirements. 

 **Disclaimer:** This section provides concepts for architectures. Ensuring the compliance of architecture implementations is the full responsibility of the customer, not AWS.
