Michael,

Let's work on bike shedding [1], it is always easier and funnier ;-)

DOS: DNS Outsourcing Services
EDI: External DNS Infrastructure

Or somehow more seriously:
NOS: Naming Outsourcing Services
NES: Naming External Services
NEOS: Naming Externally Outsourced Services

[1] as I learned this term only about 3 years ago (actually when I was selected 
as area director!) I may not be the only one who was clueless when reading 
"bike shedding", here is a pointer

    In draft-ietf-homenet-front-end-naming, we have the term: DOI.

    DNS Outsourcing Infrastructure (DOI):
    : is the infrastructure responsible for receiving the Public Homenet Zone 
and publishing it on the Internet.
    It is mainly composed of a Distribution Manager and Public Authoritative 
Servers.


    I never liked the acronym ("DOI" means evil old ISAKMP/IKEv1 things to me),
    but I never had a better term.    RFC8499 has a bunch of terms, but none of
    them seem to be helpful here.
