# Namespaces | ||
|
||
## Abstract | ||
|
||
A Namespace is a mechanism to partition resources created by users into | ||
a logically named group. | ||
|
||
## Motivation | ||
|
||
A single cluster should be able to satisfy the needs of multiple users or groups of users (henceforth a 'user community'). | ||
|
||
Each user community wants to be able to work in isolation from other communities. | ||
|
||
Each user community has its own: | ||
|
||
1. resources (pods, services, replication controllers, etc.) | ||
2. policies (who can or cannot perform actions in their community) | ||
3. constraints (this community is allowed this much quota, etc.) | ||
|
||
A cluster operator may create a Namespace for each unique user community. | ||
|
||
The Namespace provides a unique scope for: | ||
|
||
1. named resources (to avoid basic naming collisions) | ||
2. delegated management authority to trusted users | ||
3. ability to limit community resource consumption | ||
|
||
## Use cases | ||
|
||
1. As a cluster operator, I want to support multiple user communities on a single cluster. | ||
2. As a cluster operator, I want to delegate authority to partitions of the cluster to trusted users | ||
in those communities. | ||
3. As a cluster operator, I want to limit the amount of resources each community can consume in order | ||
to limit the impact to other communities using the cluster. | ||
4. As a cluster user, I want to interact with resources that are pertinent to my user community in | ||
isolation of what other user communities are doing on the cluster. | ||
|
||
|
||
## Usage | ||
|
||
Look [here](namespaces/) for an in depth example of namespaces. | ||
|
||
### Viewing namespaces | ||
|
||
You can list the current namespaces in a cluster using: | ||
|
||
```console | ||
$ kubectl get namespaces | ||
NAME LABELS STATUS | ||
default <none> Active | ||
kube-system <none> Active | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Kubernetes starts with two initial namespaces: | ||
* `default` The default namespace for objects with no other namespace | ||
* `kube-system` The namespace for objects created by the Kubernetes system | ||
|
||
You can also get the summary of a specific namespace using: | ||
|
||
```console | ||
$ kubectl get namespaces <name> | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Or you can get detailed information with: | ||
|
||
```console | ||
$ kubectl describe namespaces <name> | ||
Name: default | ||
Labels: <none> | ||
Status: Active | ||
|
||
No resource quota. | ||
|
||
Resource Limits | ||
Type Resource Min Max Default | ||
---- -------- --- --- --- | ||
Container cpu - - 100m | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Note that these details show both resource quota (if present) as well as resource limit ranges. | ||
|
||
Resource quota tracks aggregate usage of resources in the *Namespace* and allows cluster operators | ||
to define *Hard* resource usage limits that a *Namespace* may consume. | ||
|
||
A limit range defines min/max constraints on the amount of resources a single entity can consume in | ||
a *Namespace*. | ||
|
||
See [Admission control: Limit Range](../design/admission_control_limit_range.md) | ||
|
||
A namespace can be in one of two phases: | ||
* `Active` the namespace is in use | ||
* ```Terminating`` the namespace is being deleted, and can not be used for new objects | ||
|
||
See the [design doc](../design/namespaces.md#phases) for more details. | ||
|
||
### Creating a new namespace | ||
|
||
To create a new namespace, first create a new YAML file called `my-namespace.yaml` with the contents: | ||
|
||
```yaml | ||
apiVersion: v1 | ||
kind: Namespace | ||
metadata: | ||
name: <insert-namespace-name-here> | ||
``` | ||
Note that the name of your namespace must be a DNS compatible label. | ||
More information on the `finalizers` field can be found in the namespace [design doc](../design/namespaces.md#finalizers). | ||
|
||
Then run: | ||
|
||
```console | ||
$ kubectl create -f ./my-namespace.yaml | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### Working in namespaces | ||
|
||
See [Setting the namespace for a request](../../docs/user-guide/namespaces.md#setting-the-namespace-for-a-request) | ||
and [Setting the namespace preference](../../docs/user-guide/namespaces.md#setting-the-namespace-preference). | ||
|
||
### Deleting a namespace | ||
|
||
You can delete a namespace with | ||
|
||
```console | ||
$ kubectl delete namespaces <insert-some-namespace-name> | ||
``` | ||
|
||
**WARNING, this deletes _everything_ under the namespace!** | ||
|
||
This delete is asynchronous, so for a time you will see the namespace in the `Terminating` state. | ||
|
||
## Namespaces and DNS | ||
|
||
When you create a [Service](../../docs/user-guide/services.md), it creates a corresponding [DNS entry](dns.md)1. | ||
This entry is of the form `<service-name>.<namespace-name>.cluster.local`, which means | ||
that if a container just uses `<service-name>` it will resolve to the service which | ||
is local to a namespace. This is useful for using the same configuration across | ||
multiple namespaces such as Development, Staging and Production. If you want to reach | ||
across namespaces, you need to use the fully qualified domain name (FQDN). | ||
|
||
## Design | ||
|
||
Details of the design of namespaces in Kubernetes, including a [detailed example](../design/namespaces.md#example-openshift-origin-managing-a-kubernetes-namespace) | ||
can be found in the [namespaces design doc](../design/namespaces.md) | ||
