Deleting a Namespace and All Its Objects

Deleting a Namespace and All Its Objects

In this lesson, we will delete the Namespace and everything associated with it.

The Cascaded Deletion

Another handy feature of the Namespaces is their cascading effect. If, for example, we delete the testing Namespace, all the objects and the resources running inside it will be removed as well.

Press + to interact
kubectl delete ns testing
kubectl -n testing get all

We deleted the testing Namespace and retrieved all the objects residing in it. The output is as follows.
