In IBM Cloud Pak for Integration (CP4I) v2021.2, which runs on Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform (OCP), a Kubernetes namespace is alternatively referred to as a Project.
In Kubernetes, a namespace is a logical isolation mechanism that helps organize and manage resources within a cluster.
In OpenShift (OCP), which is built on Kubernetes, a Project is essentially a namespace with additional OpenShift-specific functionalities such as role-based access control (RBAC), quotas, and security policies.
OpenShift extends the standard Kubernetes namespace concept by integrating user and group access controls, making the Project a more feature-rich alternative.
Thus, in the context of IBM Cloud Pak for Integration (CP4I) v2021.2, the correct alternative representation of a Kubernetes namespace is a Project in OpenShift.
