If using CentOS, my Python application can call os.system, command.commands, popen, or subprocess to issue command line requests, what would be the advatage of installing and using the paramiko module for the same requests?

Seems like it is for remote machines connection not inside your own computer.

So looks like it is ssh connection program offering secure connection to remote machines.
