Pulsar namespaces are logical groupings of topics.

Namespaces can be managed via:

The namespaces command of the pulsar-admin tool
The /admin/v2/namespaces endpoint of the admin {@inject: rest:REST:/} API
The namespaces method of the PulsarAdmin object in the Java API

Configure backlog quota policies

Set backlog quota policies

Backlog quota helps the broker to restrict bandwidth/storage of a namespace once it reaches a certain threshold limit. Admin can set the limit and take corresponding action after the limit is reached.

producer_request_hold: broker holds but not persists produce request payload
producer_exception: broker disconnects with the client by giving an exception
consumer_backlog_eviction: broker starts discarding backlog messages

Backlog quota restriction can be taken care by defining restriction of backlog-quota-type: destination_storage.

Configure namespace bundles

Unload namespace bundles

The namespace bundle is a virtual group of topics which belong to the same namespace. If the broker gets overloaded with the number of bundles, this command can help unload a bundle from that broker, so it can be served by some other less-loaded brokers. The namespace bundle ID ranges from 0x00000000 to 0xffffffff.

```

</TabItem>

</Tabs>

Split namespace bundles

One namespace bundle can contain multiple topics but can be served by only one broker. If a single bundle is creating an excessive load on a broker, an admin can split the bundle using the command below, permitting one or more of the new bundles to be unloaded, thus balancing the load across the brokers.

Configure dispatch throttling for topics

Set dispatch throttling for topics

It sets message dispatch rate for all the topics under a given namespace. The dispatch rate can be restricted by the number of messages per X seconds (msg-dispatch-rate) or by the number of message-bytes per X second (byte-dispatch-rate). dispatch rate is in second and it can be configured with dispatch-rate-period. Default value of msg-dispatch-rate and byte-dispatch-rate is -1 which disables the throttling.

:::note

If neither clusterDispatchRate nor topicDispatchRate is configured, dispatch throttling is disabled.
If topicDispatchRate is not configured, clusterDispatchRate takes effect.
If topicDispatchRate is configured, topicDispatchRate takes effect.
