Visualize resource links better by focus on logical resource dependency's

Feature name Visualize resource links better by focus on logical resource dependency's

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It is not easy to create a nice visual of a simple resource dependency. For Example: Route53, IGW, CloudFront (++WAF), ALB, Listener, Target Groups, Server (Network Interface, Disk, ...) Also an ALB Listener seems not to link with Target Groups. For Example: Visualize network connectivity within the VPC for Servers.

Describe the feature you'd like to see implemented See attached examples from other software products that realize nice overviews without any diagram change. Have to possibility to group links. For example. Group connection from ALB to Subnets or to server. I like the way a resource group expand and the other resources stay visible.

Describe the value this feature will add to AWS Perspective Out of the box usable diagrams (Templates). Less time to find problems in the architecture.

Describe alternatives you've considered Other products.

This seems to me be be similar to https://github.com/aws-solutions/workload-discovery-on-aws/issues/127, where we would have views with different granularities. This is definitely something we are interested in pursuing but obviously it involves a lot of redesign of the front end so we'd need to do a lot of planning to see how we would implement it.
