Kubectl Namespaces and Context

  • Namespaces limit scope, aka 'virtual clusters'
  • Not related to Docker / Linux namespaces
  • Won't need them in small clusters
  • There are some built-in, to hide system stuff from kubectl users
    • kubectl get namespaces
    • kubectl get all --all-namespaces
  • Context changes kubectl cluster and namespace, see ~/.kube/config file
    • kubectl config get-contexts
    • kubectl config set* <-- see help for this
