How to set up a tenant

Pulsar is a powerful messaging system you can use to process and route high volumes of data. Each tenant provides a distinct unit of isolation with its own set of roles, permissions, configuration settings, and bookmarks.

In this tutorial, you will create a new tenant, named “apache” in your Pulsar cluster, hosted in K8s helm.

To create a tenant, complete the following steps.

  1. Enter the toolset container.

    1. kubectl exec -it -n pulsar pulsar-mini-toolset-0 -- /bin/bash

  2. In the toolset container, create a tenant named apache.

    1. bin/pulsar-admin tenants create apache

  3. List the tenants to see if the tenant is created successfully.

    1. bin/pulsar-admin tenants list

    You should see a similar output as below.

    1. The tenant apache has been successfully created.
    2. "apache"
    3. "public"
    4. "pulsar"
