I work for a large company that has multiple locations and sub business and many buildings have multiple data centres. By looking at the name, we can tell if its a prod / dev or a test server, location of the server ( city/building code and DC number), generic function ( DB -database could be any type of db , FS- file server, etc ) and unique number. Pretty good to pinpoint the location of the server globally but useless when you need to find out the exact function. While our inventory system is kind of OK, keeping it updated is a pain.
