Flawless AWS Names. Every time.
Built for AWS builders, Taytly ensures every name is AWS-compliant and structured.
No more guesswork!
What is Taytly?
Taytly is the FIRST, and ONLY Chrome extension that lets you instantly search AWS services and generate consistent, descriptive, and compliant resource names — no guesswork, no inconsistency, no Bullsh**.
It was built to kill off one of the oldest, most ignored problems in cloud infrastructure: naming.
Yes, like giving a name to a child. Tried that? ..X Æ A-12 😬
(Elon should have used Taytly instead!)
..and his boy would be properly named: "musk-x-æ-a-12-ec2-public-us-east-1-pro"
Anyway, back in the days, when AWS had just around 40–50 services, I was one of the sinners.
Naming things like Lambda1, test-final, and ImagesBucket.
Yeap... guilty as charged.
Things went downhill fast once the team grew. Everyone had their own “convention.”
Excel naming matrices? We tried. They broke.
Even with a small set of services, the naming combinations were already out of control.
Just imagine that problem today:
- AWS has 200+ services
- Each has multiple sub-resources or variations, just see the VPC endpoints, over 400! 😵 - And they all need names!
- And yes, not to forget, environments, regions, AZs, visibility scopes, etc.
You're looking at over 1.7 million possible combinations. 😱 (Seriously, try calculating it.)
And yet, nobody’s talking about this. Actually, everyone just gaveup!
Naming is still tribal knowledge, passed in Slack threads, buried in Confluence pages, or worse, not defined at all.
People have been suggesting tags, but, that’s even more hidous to maintain!
Sure, some teams use Terraform, great tool. But it’s not universal, it’s not lightweight, and it won’t enforce naming sanity out of the box.
Aaand 🥁, that’s why we've built Taytly, to give you instant, idiot-proof, infrastructure-wide naming clarity.
That was a mouthful statement, I know!
But all because naming should be Boring. Predictable. Fast. And never debated again.
How it works.
It basically takes three steps!
Step 1: Search for title, e.g. Lambda
Step 2: Write your app or project name. So the title makes more sense!
Step 3: Taytly throws some suggestions, .. you just click and paste it in the AWS resource name field.
So, basically, you go
FROM: "My Lambda",
TO: "super-api-lmb-us-east-1a-pro"
..quite a jump you say! But, like a PRO 😎
That was easy, Yes!
Ready to give it a try?
..if not yet, well, just keep reading.
So, why do you need Taytly
Before we go any further, let me ask you a few quick questions.
If you answer yes to any of them, ..well keep reading my dear friend.
- You suck in giving names. - Yes?
- Forget what those names even mean a week later. - Yes?
- You can’t remeber what built last Friday, let alone why you named it that way. - Yes?
So you answered yes — no shame in that, we’ve all been there.
Basically, YOU need Taytly ONLY if (and I am serious about this):
- You’re tired of inventing naming rules on the fly, you just want them done right.
- You want to ensure your entire team follows the same naming conventions.
- You want to avoid configuration and security issues caused by inconsistent resource names.
But, let me give you few more reasons:
- You had to grep through 100+ Terraform files to find out what
test-final-bucket-v3actually does. - You deleted a critical Lambda because it looked like someone else’s experiment.
- You spent hours debugging IAM policies only to realize the resource name had a typo.
- Your infra documentation is full of naming exceptions, workarounds, and tribal knowledge.
- You onboarded a new dev, and they asked: "Why is the staging RDS called
db-prod-copy-2?" - ...and more!
Are you convinced now!
If YES 👏, Try it now.
Still not convinced? ..OKI, keep reading boss.
