Kubernetes supports multiple virtual clusters backed by the same physical cluster. These virtual clusters are called namespaces. Read more about namespaces at https://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/namespaces/

Example Usage

resource "kubernetes_namespace" "example" {
  metadata {
    annotations {
      name = "example-annotation"
    }

    labels {
      mylabel = "label-value"
    }

    name = "TerraformExampleNamespace"
  }
}

• self_link - A URL representing this namespace.
• uid - The unique in time and space value for this namespace. More info: http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/identifiers#uids
