@InterfaceAudience.Public
@InterfaceStability.Evolving
public class NamespaceDescriptor
extends Object

Namespace POJO class. Used to represent and define namespaces. Descriptors will be persisted in an hbase table. This works since namespaces are essentially metadata of a group of tables as opposed to a more tangible container.
