| To be able to perform all available operations on your data regions, |
| follow these region naming guidelines. |
| |
| - Permitted characters within region names are alphanumeric characters |
| (`ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789`), |
| the underscore character (`_`), and the hyphen character (`-`). |
| - Do not use the slash character (`/`). |
| - Do not begin region names with two underscore characters (`__`), |
| as this is reserved for internal use. |
