I am trying to re-create the following diagram:

enter image description here Here is my code:

    \documentclass{article} 
    \usepackage{tikz}
    \usetikzlibrary{arrows,fit,shadows,calc,positioning}

    \begin{document}
            \begin{figure}[t]
        \centering      
        \begin{tikzpicture}[
        node distance=0.1cm,
        mynode/.style={
            draw,
            outer sep=0pt,
            text centered,
            text width= 2cm,
        },]
        \node[mynode,fill=red] (line1a) {container};    
        \node[mynode,fill=red] (line1b) [right=of line1a] {container};
            \node[mynode,fill=red] (line1c) [right=of line1b] {container};
        \node[mynode,fill=purple] (line2a)[fit = (line1a)(line1c),
        below = 1cm of line1a.west,
        anchor= south west, inner sep=0, label=center:{container Runtime}] {};
        \node[mynode,fill=cyan] (line3a)[fit = (line2a),
        below = 1cm of line2a.west,
        anchor= south west, inner sep=0, label=center:{Container OS}] {};   
        \node[mynode,fill=gray] (line4a)[fit = (line3a),
        below = 1cm of line3a.west,
        anchor= south west, inner sep=0, label=center:{Physical Host (or VM)}] {};      
        \end{tikzpicture}
        \caption{cap}
        \label{figure:cap}
    \end{figure}
    \end{document}

and my progress so far: enter image description here

I am still new to TikZ, Is there an easier way to draw it ?

  • Not really. A tikz matrix might help. You can use a scope with [local bounding box=name] to create a node like entity containing other nodes and things. Personally, I've always avoided using the fit library. Commented Nov 18, 2017 at 23:18
