Naming Standard & Regex (IINS v5)

Canonical Format

[2LETTER_COUNTRY][3LETTER_CITY][CATEGORY][2DIGIT_INSTANCE][ENV_TYPE].[CATEGORY].internode.in

Hostnames are case‑insensitive; we standardize to: uppercase country/city/env, lowercase category.

Components

  • 2LETTER_COUNTRY (ISO 3166‑1 alpha‑2): e.g., DE, US, IN
  • 3LETTER_CITY (internal registry): e.g., NUR, FRA, BLR, NYC, SFO
  • CATEGORY (asset/role): node, host, vm, fw, stg, db, ipb, asn, api, bind
  • 2DIGIT_INSTANCE: 0199
  • ENV_TYPE: P (Prod), D (Dev), U (UAT), S (Staging), T (Test)
  • Fixed Domain: internode.in

Examples

  • DENURnode01P.node.internode.in (Germany / Nuremberg / cloud host / instance 01 / prod)
  • DEFRAbind03D.bind.internode.in (Germany / Frankfurt / BIND server / instance 03 / dev)
  • INBLRfw02U.fw.internode.in (India / Bengaluru / firewall / instance 02 / UAT)

Primary Zone Validator (baseline)

Enforces matching category token on both sides via backreference.

^[A-Z]{2}[A-Z]{3}(node|host|vm|fw|stg|db|ipb|asn|api|bind)[0-9]{2}[PDUST]\.\1\.internode\.in$

Clients Zone Validator

For onboarded clients under *.clients.internode.in.

^[A-Z]{2}[A-Z]{3}(node|host|vm|fw|stg|db|ipb|asn|api|bind)[0-9]{2}[PDUST]\.\1\.clients\.internode\.in$

Governance & Enforcement

  • Maintain a central registry of ISO country codes, standardized 3‑letter city codes, and asset/role categories.
  • Enforce naming via CI/CD checks, IaC templates, and provisioning scripts.
  • Automate validation with the regex above to reduce human error and ensure consistency.

Clients Handling

Certain clients are onboarded for their own machines; to keep segregation clean and prevent operational overlap, those assets live under *.clients.internode.in. The same IINS v5 rules apply, including category mirroring and environment tags.

Example

INBLRvm05S.vm.clients.internode.in

Business & Commercial

Commercial operations are handled by Stellaurus.in (primary). Stellaurus.com and Stellaurus.ch act as mirrors/redirectors, signifying global reach with an India foundation and a Swiss presence.
