The Force.com platform is a multi-layered system with an assortment of diagrams available that represent different aspects of the platform, but with no one diagram explaining everything.  In this video excerpt from Don Robins' new course Force.com Platform - The Big Picture you'll see how the architectural pieces of Force.com stack up to provide developers with the functionality they need for their applications.  In the full course Don covers multitenancy, metadata, and the Force.com SOA APIs.
