# Relay Namespace

An Azure Relay Namespace is a container that hosts one or more relay entities used for secure, firewall-friendly communication between applications. It enables hybrid connectivity by allowing on-premises services to be accessed from the cloud without opening inbound ports. The namespace provides the endpoint, authentication, and management scope for all relay resources.
