IMO there is a middle ground: larger & long living services that are internal only, and you have 1-2 handful of them. At my current employer I've started with greek gods whose background is related with the service we're building. E.g. Apollo = god of truth = data warehouse; Hermes = messenger god = messaging service for reporting, etc. It's quite successful in that these names are more quickly adopted and recognized by internal business users, compared to giving it a boring functional name. It also clearly outlines that they are part of a wider concept (new tech stack = greek gods, legacy marked for decommissioning = mostly everything else they hear). |
