Manage Bundles

Namespace bundle is a virtual group of namespace's topics that is assigned to a specific broker.1

tip

If you're new to Pulsar or not going to administrate it, feel free to skip this page.

Otherwise, we recommend first reading the Load balance across brokers article on the Pulsar website.

Namespace bundles allow Pulsar to distribute the workload evenly across brokers, enabling efficient resource utilization and better performance.

A namespace bundle is defined as a range between two 32-bit hashes, such as 0x00000000 and 0xffffffff.
