Here's a talk suggestion for CentOS Dojo, Sysadmin track:
Cockpit: The Linux admin interface
Cockpit is the missing Linux server admin interface. It's discoverable, and reduces the learning curve for new Linux sysadmins. It also makes complex tasks simple and routine for anyone, expert or not.
Cockpit runs in your browser. We'll talk about how it's designed to be on by default, it's zero footprint, starts on demand, and has low server side dependencies.
We'll look at how to use Cockpit on your CentOS systems, how Cockpit can run over your SSH port, on otherwise firewalled systems.
The talk will also look at how Cockpit supplements other server management tools. You can still use the terminal, scripts, or configuration management along-side Cockpit.
There are demos included, and you can follow along on your own machines.
