What Are Namespaces

Namespaces are regular Kubernetes namespaces managed by vCluster Platform that are owned by a user or team. In Kubernetes, namespaces provide a mechanism for isolating groups of resources within a single cluster.

In vCluster Platform, each namespace belongs to a cluster and project. Each namespace also was created from a template to ensure the Kubernetes namespace and objects within it conform to isolation best practices. You can easily manage who has access to a namespace and connect to it via kubectl.

info

For applications that require multiple namespaces or need to create cluster scoped resources, virtual clusters are recommended instead.
