In one sentence, it introduces
the IoT operating system developed for automobiles, IoT terminals, IoT chips and industrial fields, and integrates the original YunOS mobile terminal business. AliOS Thing will be open source, and the majority of IoT terminal manufacturers and independent developers can jointly build, continuously improve and strengthen OS functions.
Among them, the automotive operating system is an important development area of AliOS. In July 2016, Alibaba and SAIC cooperated with the world's first Internet car, such as Roewe series, MG series, Chase series, some models are equipped with AliOS.
Why launch AliOS?
There are many common problems in IoT terminal development: multiple chips and multiple OSs lead to high development costs for terminal manufacturers, the existing old mainstream OS lacks the components required for IoT, and the variety of IoT products brings configuration problems to the OS. Developer tools outside the operating system are not perfect.
At the same time, the background environment is the development of 5G communication technology. It is recognized by the industry that 5G technology will become the revolutionary core driving force for the development of the Internet of Things. Communication features such as high speed, low latency, and large capacity will provide strong support for the IoT.
Features of AliOS
Complete functions: Provide rich IoT components
Chip support: In-depth cooperation, fully integrate AliOS and SoC module resources
Application development support: One-click deployment of cloud development
Coordination work
The cooperation between the cloud and the terminal: The traditional OS provides more local scheduling, but AliOS has cloud genes. The resource scheduling system cooperates with the cloud to perform resource scheduling on the terminal and resource scheduling on the terminal. Optimize operations and facilitate upgrades. The cloud-integrated scheduling capability enables devices to obtain the latest capabilities of the cloud through the OS upgrade function.
Detailed technical features: lightweight kernel, low power consumption, support for multiple link methods, security, FOTA, terminal cloud, AliOS IDE
AliOS Outlook
AliOS' mission is to 'drive the intelligence of everything'. We hope to build together with more manufacturers/developers of chips, smart hardware, components, applications, etc. in the future. The OS (terminal), connection, cloud service, and hardware are deeply combined to provide a one-stop IoT solution for IoT ecological partners, thus forming a closed loop.
