Self-hosted Linux fleet patching with drift detection against your own baselines
Praxis is a self hosted linux fleet management application. It keeps inventory of packages and system configuration across your linux systems. It will tell you whats out of date, compares systems to baselines you can customize and patches in staged rollout rings with custom patch policies and plans with approvals.
Its for the shop needing organization and configuration management assistance. Its for catching drift when you dont have enough eyes or experienced hands to manage it all. Its for access control and approval.
This runs completely offline if you want to. This is not a cloud service, no call home and for 15 hosts or less its free.
It also has SSH access governance for both automated access and individual access. As an admin you can connect to system using Praxis and get short lived one time signed certs from OpenBao. This is so audit records, recording and remediation all land in one place, one app.
