Foreman vs Cockpit #16188

I came across the project Foreman. I read that Foreman is the upstream version of Red Hat Satellite? What is the place of Cockpit in the Red Hats software landscape? Couldn't find any information about this. |

Foreman/Satellite are meant to administer/install your hardware machine in bulk. At most you can run the same CLI command on a number of machines and eventually get the output. Cockpit is an interactive Linux session to work with and troubleshoot a single machine, with lots of pages what to do in particular. Thus the two go hand in hand -- Foreman even has a "Web console" button where you can "drill down" into a particular machine to get a Cockpit UI. |
