The best place to look is the developer/user guide links that show up on the right side of component level web pages on http://oodt.apache.org. I just checked in a number of them tonight that existed on the internal JPL site, for the profile and product servers. > > 2) Where can I find diagrams/documentations about components like > ProfileClient/Server and ProductClient/Server components?

I appreciate your clarification. With the latest movement of OODT to REST, we've removed the need for an explicit Profile/Product client, and moved towards a curl/wget model since they support the OODT product server and profile server protocols (delivered via webgrid). HTH!
