About:
Mpssh is a command-line tool that executes SSH commands across multiple hosts in parallel. It streamlines remote server management by distributing commands concurrently, significantly reducing the time required for fleet-wide operations. The tool reads host lists from stdin or files, making it ideal for automation scripts.
Key Features:
  • Parallel execution across many hosts
  • Simple stdin-based host list input
  • Per-host output with clear identification
  • Configurable concurrency limits
Use Cases:
  • Deploying configuration changes across server fleets
  • Gathering system information or logs from multiple hosts
  • Bulk package updates or security patches
Alternatives:
  • pssh – More feature-rich but larger dependency footprint
  • Ansible – More powerful configuration management but heavier complexity
