Azure Resource Naming Conventions (3 Character Region Codes)

Last Updated: 2025-01-27
Status: Active - Standard Convention
Purpose: Azure resource naming with 3-character region codes (standard)

Standard Naming Pattern

All Azure resources follow this standard naming convention using exactly 3-character region codes:

{cloud_provider}-{env_code}-{region_code}-{resource_type}-{purpose}-{instance}

Note

: This is the standard convention using exactly 3-character region codes (e.g., wst, nor, frc).
Alternative: See Azure Naming Convention (2-3 Character) for 2-3 character codes.

  • env_code: p (production), d (dev), t (test), s (staging)
  • region_code: 3-letter region code (e.g., wst for westeurope, nor for northeurope)
  • resource_type: Resource type abbreviation (e.g., rg for resource group, kv for key vault)
  • purpose: Purpose abbreviation (e.g., sec for security, comp for compute)
  • instance: Sequential number (e.g., 001, 002)

Naming Rules

  1. Use lowercase: All names must be lowercase
  2. Use dashes: Separate components with dashes (-)
  3. No underscores: Do not use underscores in resource names
  4. No spaces: Do not use spaces in resource names
  5. Keep it short: Azure resource names have length limits
  6. Be consistent: Use the same pattern across all resources
  7. Include region: Always include region code for multi-region resources
  8. 3-character codes: All region codes must be exactly 3 characters

Legacy Naming (Deprecated)

Some older resources may use legacy naming:

  • Legacy Key Vault: azp{code}kvsecrets001 (no dashes, old codes)
  • Legacy Resource Group: azp{code}rgsec001 (no dashes, old codes)

Note: Azure resources cannot be renamed. Legacy resources should be:

  1. Migrated to new resources with standard naming (where possible)
  2. Documented as legacy
  3. Scripts should handle both patterns for backward compatibility

Migration Strategy

For resources that cannot be renamed (e.g., Key Vaults):

  1. Create new resources with standard naming (3-char codes)
  2. Migrate data/secrets from legacy resources
  3. Update scripts to prefer standard naming
  4. Deprecate legacy resources (but keep them for reference)

Scripts and Tools

  • Check naming: scripts/azure/check-naming-conventions.sh
  • Fix naming: scripts/deployment/fix-resource-groups-and-keyvaults.sh
  • List resources: scripts/azure/list-all-resources.sh

Validation

All new resources should:

  1. Follow the standard naming pattern
  2. Use exactly 3-character region codes
  3. Use correct resource type abbreviations
  4. Use correct purpose abbreviations

Use the validation script to check:

./scripts/azure/check-naming-conventions.sh
