Computer network naming scheme
Template:Refimprove In computing, a naming scheme is a system for assigning and managing names of objects connected into computer networks. It typically consists of a namespace and processes for assigning, storing, and resolving names.
Naming schemes in computing
Server naming is a common tradition. It makes it more convenient to refer to a machine by name than by its IP address.
Network naming can be hierarchical in nature, such as the Internet's Domain Name System. Indeed, the Internet employs several universally applicable naming methods: uniform resource name (URN), uniform resource locator (URL), and uniform resource identifier (URI).
Naming systems have several other characteristics. The entities that assign and manage names can be distributed, centralized, or hierarchical. Names can be human-readable or not human-readable.[1]
Azure
On Microsoft Azure there is a naming convention to prefix applications with Page Template:Mono/styles.css has no content.app-, functions app with Page Template:Mono/styles.css has no content.func-, and service buses with Page Template:Mono/styles.css has no content.sb-. The convention is to suffix the name with the environment Page Template:Mono/styles.css has no content.-prod or Page Template:Mono/styles.css has no content.-test and a number for the instance such as Page Template:Mono/styles.css has no content.-001, Page Template:Mono/styles.css has no content.-002, etc. Example Page Template:Mono/styles.css has no content.app-navigator-prod-001.azurewebsites.net.[2][3]
