Organization and Namespaces

Resources in the DBNL platform are organized using organizations and namespaces.

Organization

An organization, or org for short, corresponds to a DBNL deployment.

Organization Resources

Some resources, such as users, are defined at the organization level. Those resources are sometimes referred to as organization resources or org resources.

Namespaces

A namespace is a unit of isolation within a DBNL organization.

Namespace Resources

Most resources, including projects and their related resources, are defined at the namespace level. Resources defined within a namespace are only accessible within that namespace providing isolation between namespaces.

Default Namespace

All organizations include a namespace named default. This namespace cannot be modified or deleted.

By default, users are assigned the namespace reader role in the default namespace.

Switching Namespace

To switch namespace, use the namespace switcher in the navigation bar.

Creating a Namespace

To create a namespace, go to ☰ > Settings > Admin > Namespaces and click the + Create Namespace button.

Creating a namespace requires having the org admin role.
