A namespace groups related workload resources inside an account. Use namespaces to separate environments, teams, applications, or other resource sets that should be listed and managed together.

What namespaces scope

Workload commands use a namespace when creating, listing, updating, or deleting workload resources. Examples of namespace-scoped resources include deployments, jobs, cron jobs, replica sets, and pods.
