naming_conventions:
overview: >
Canonical naming scheme for sites and devices, used consistently in all
blueprints, IaC, monitoring, documentation and inventory systems. Pattern
is designed to be global (multi-continent), sovereign-aware (country),
location-specific (city) and module/rack/device specific.
site_code:
pattern: "<CONTINENT>-<CITY>-<COUNTRY><NN>"
description: >
Human- and machine-readable identifier for a physical site/module.
Always use fixed-width 2-digit numeric suffix <NN> for uniqueness.
examples:
- "EU-PAR-FR01 # Paris, France - primary"
- "EU-PAR-FR02 # Paris, France - secondary"
- "EU-MAR-FR03 # Marseille, France - third"
- "EU-FRA-DE01 # Frankfurt, Germany - first DE site"
- "US-NY-US01 # New York, USA - first US site"
components:
continent:
code_values:
- "EU # Europe"
- "US # United States"
notes: "Extend with other continents (AP, AF, SA, OC, AS, etc.) as needed."
country:
code_values:
- "FR # France"
- "DE # Germany"
- "US # United States"
notes: "Use ISO-like 2-letter codes for countries."
city:
code_values:
- "PAR # Paris"
- "MAR # Marseille"
- "BOR # Bordeaux"
- "NAN # Nantes"
- "FRA # Frankfurt"
- "NY # New York"
notes: >
City codes are stable mnemonics; define centrally (e.g. in a YAML map)
and reuse. For new cities, extend the map only via PR review.
index:
pattern: "NN # 01-99"
notes: "Unique per city+country; 01 usually primary, 02 secondary, etc."
rack_code:
pattern: "<SITE>-RK<rr>"
description: >
Identifies a specific rack within a site. Can be extended with room/zone
information when necessary while preserving RK<rr> as the rack index.
examples:
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK01"
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK02"
- "EU-FRA-DE01-RK01"
- "US-NY-US01-RK01"
extensions:
room_or_zone:
description: >
If racks span multiple rooms/zones, use a suffix or infix such as
RK01A, RK02B or Z1-RK01 as standardised in the physical model.
examples:
- "EU-PAR-FR01-Z1-RK01"
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK01A"
device_code:
pattern: "<SITE>-RK<rr>-<DEVICE><dd>"
description: >
Identifies a specific device in a rack. DEVICE is a short type code;
<dd> is a 2-digit index, except for devices that traditionally use
letter suffixes (e.g., PDUs A/B).
examples:
firewalls:
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK01-FW01"
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK01-FW02"
management_nodes:
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK01-mgmt01 # Local management node (e.g. MAAS rack controller)"
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK01-mgmt02"
switches:
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK01-tor01 # ToR / L3 switch"
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK02-tor02"
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK01-lf01 # Leaf switch"
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK02-sp02 # Spine switch"
servers:
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK01-srv01"
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK01-srv02"
- "EU-FRA-DE01-RK01-srv01"
- "US-NY-US01-RK01-srv01"
storage:
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK01-san01 # SAN array"
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK01-nas01 # NAS filer"
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK01-jbd01 # JBOD / disk shelf"
monitoring:
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK01-mon01"
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK01-mon02"
power:
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK01-pduA"
- "EU-PAR-FR01-RK01-pduB"

mgmt: "Generic management node (e.g., MAAS, jump host)"
mon: "Monitoring / logging node"
pduA: "Rack PDU side A"
pduB: "Rack PDU side B"
implementation_notes:
- "Enforce naming via IaC modules (variables, templates, validation in CI)."
- "Monitoring, CMDB and inventory tools must use these names as primary identifiers."
- "No ad-hoc names; new device types must extend the device_type_codes map and be reviewed."
- "Where external systems impose constraints (e.g. 15-char limits), define deterministic truncation rules."

- "Establish cluster federation (service discovery, identity, policy)."
- "Regularly review metrics and adjust reference design if needed."
verification_and_validation:
automated_checks:
- "Unit and integration tests on IaC"
- "Pre-deploy policy gates (security, sovereignty, sustainability)"
- "Post-deploy conformance tests (network, storage, platform)"
manual_reviews:
- "DPO/legal review for residency and cross-border transfers"
- "Facility audit for physical security and safety"
- "Sustainability review vs targets (quarterly)"
continuous_improvement:
- "Chaos drills to validate reliability objectives"
- "Lessons-learned feeding back into reference module definition in Git"
council_alignment:
outcome_requirements_satisfied:
- "zero_manual_provisioning: all steps via IaC/GitOps"
- "zero_snowflake_clusters: single reference module, per-site overrides only in Git"
- "fully_reproducible_infra_from_git: facility, network, platform all described as code"
- "multi_dc_consistency: micro-DC modules cloned from one canonical blueprint"
- "ha_control_planes: K8s/OpenStack control planes deployed HA by default"
- "predictable_gpu_performance: capacity/perf baselines, NUMA-aware design"
- "automated_lifecycle_management: Git-driven upgrades and change flows"
- "telemetry_and_self_healing: observability and auto-remediation hooks by design"
- "clear_slo_sli_error_budgets: defined in platform and observability repos"
- "security_and_compliance_built_in: policy-as-code, RBAC, auditability"
- "gdpr_and_data_sovereignty_alignment: data-classification and residency rules enforced"
- "eco_efficiency_and_sustainability_kpis: PUE/WUE/renewables targets and monitoring"
- "architecture_must_be_deployable: concrete runbook and automation stack specified"
- "all_answers_validated_by_cross_seat_consensus: design integrates all 14 roles"
