Some of the benefits of this convention include:

One response to “Our Server Naming Convention Explained

  1. We used to name servers as Beer names, Heineken, Bass, Fosters etc at Telecom Bermuda and now at Wireless Ventures all our machines follow Japanese names that include forms of Sushi and martial arts techniques.
