Microsoft Azure Data Lake Management Namespace Package [Internal]
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
No—do not install this directly. It is internal infrastructure meant only as a transitive dependency of Azure Data Lake management packages. If you need Azure Data Lake functionality, install the specific client library that depends on it.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- This package is internal infrastructure and should not be installed directly by end users.
- Low install friction with a single runtime dependency (azure-mgmt-nspkg).
- The package is actively maintained with recent repository activity, though the last release was in 2018.

What it is and what it does
This is a namespace package that enables the Azure SDK for Python to organize Data Lake management libraries under a shared azure.mgmt.datalake namespace. It is not meant to be installed directly by end users, but rather as a dependency of other Azure management packages that need to extend that namespace.
Since version 3.0, the package uses Python 2 for the primary implementation and PEP 420 implicit namespace packages for Python 3, avoiding conflicts with package servers that don't support python_requires. The package is minimal infrastructure—it provides the necessary files to allow other packages to coexist in the same namespace without collisions.
Use it for
- Installed as a transitive dependency when installing Azure Data Lake management client libraries
- Enabling multiple Azure management packages to share the azure.mgmt.datalake namespace without conflicts
- Supporting legacy Python 2.7 environments that require explicit namespace package setup
