Systems and methods provide for a network address management system for generating consistent network addresses to computing resources and for developing applications that are resilient to changes in the network addresses to those resources. In an embodiment, a consumer application executing on a computing system can receive a network address schema for a provider application via a library. The library may include a function for constructing a network address to the provider application. The consumer application can invoke the function to begin building the network address. The computing system/library extract context information at the time the consumer application invokes the build function, augment the context information using a selected application namespace (e.g., network address patterns and rules), and generate the network address using the augmented context information, patterns, and rules.
