What is Admin Companion?

Admin Companion is an Artificial Intelligence-powered Linux Co-Administrator designed to analyze, troubleshoot, and manage Linux systems efficiently.

What can Admin Companion do?

Admin Companion can translate natural language commands into executable actions, enabling Administrators to interact with their Linux systems in a more efficient manner.
So, you can for example install Docker and an Oracle Database with just one natural sentence.

The solution rapidly processes log files, identifies patterns, and derives necessary actions.

Leveraging advanced AI, it not only detects issues but also proposes and executes remediation steps, significantly accelerating error resolution.

What makes Admin Companion so efficient?

Admin Companion integrates directly with the Linux system shell, enabling seamless interaction with logs and task execution without manual data transfers to external agents. This minimizes response times, enhances efficiency, and streamlines troubleshooting.

Admin Companion currently supports the OpenAI models gpt-4o and o3-mini.

Currently available for Debian, Ubuntu, RedHat, and Fedora.

Scenario 2: We need a script to perform a backup with 3 rotating backup files.

Admin Companion creates the full script for us.
This complete scenario consumes 1,244 tokens, which equals to a view Cents and takes Admin Companion some seconds.
How long would it take to create such a script manually?
This is a performance boost!
