Organizing Kubernetes with Namespaces: Practical Analogies for Better Cluster Management
Organizing Kubernetes with Namespaces: Practical Analogies for Better Cluster Management
Imagine a large office building where each floor is dedicated to a specific department – marketing, finance, engineering, and so on. Each department has its workspace, tools, and resources but shares common facilities like elevators and cafeterias. Similarly, Kubernetes uses namespaces to organize and isolate different parts of a cluster, giving each project or team its dedicated space while sharing underlying cluster resources.
In this podcast, we’ll break down Kubernetes namespaces using relatable analogies, explore why they matter, and guide you through creating and using namespaces effectively in your Kubernetes clusters.
