# Grafana Mimir or Loki rule groups and namespaces
A namespace contains one or more groups. The rules within a group are run sequentially at a regular interval. The default interval is one (1) minute. You can rename Grafana Mimir or Loki rule namespaces and groups, and edit group evaluation intervals.
