Cockpit makes GNU/Linux discoverable. It’s an interactive server admin interface that lets you see and understand the health of your server at a glance; interact directly with the operating system from a real Linux session; and perform system tasks with a mouse all in a web browser. With Cockpit, sysadmins can easily perform tasks such as starting containers, storage administration, network configuration, inspecting logs and more. They can also jump between terminal and the web interface at any time.

Lightweight and very easy to use, Cockpit can be installed on many Linux operating systems, including Debian, Fedora and RHEL.
