About Hong Meng OS (operating system) has introduced a lot, but also a widely held concern, but I think the obscurity behind OS features as reflected in the technical direction as well as Huawei's strategy to deal with external challenges more interesting.
What is Hong Meng OS?
Let me talk about the name. Hong Meng have an epoch-making meaning, the English name Harmony transliteration, meaning harmony. Domineering side leakage of internal, external low-key moderate, moderation psychology is very accurate. Feeling Harmony's name better, after all, is born of things, make things interconnection, interoperability harmony is the best thing to do it.
Hong Meng briefly look at the major characteristics of the OS. Huawei stating that "the whole scene distributed microkernel-based OS". Moment in software, services and distributed micro system is very popular. It appears that the operating system level also started to go in this direction - microkernel, distributed.
Microkernel is relative to the PC operating systems, such as Linux, Windows. Traditional PC operating system to manage all the resources, such as files, display, audio, etc., is very large and complex; microkernel means the kernel is made up of relatively small independent modules that can be deployed selectively for different hardware devices. For example, a simple understanding of the need for intelligent speaker function module than less functional modules needed on your PC, then it can not be deployed without the necessary modules. Google is doing Fushia also microkernel operating system, it should be obscurity to face competitors.
Distributed OS Huawei claims to be the first one to do, it is one that can use a unified user account access to all installed obscurity hardware OS. You can control the speakers on a smart phone, you can also use the phone's camera on the TV. To the user's feeling is, OS is the same, but the hardware is distributed. You might say it also requires an operating system ah, I have to be App can do, but obscurity OS operating system level to achieve this capability, the development of a more unified interoperability functionality and convenience. Specific implementation is, Hong Meng did a distributed software bus, exchange information between hardware devices, and create a "thin protocol " as the information exchange agreement, can greatly improve the performance of data exchange.
For the Hong Meng OS has support Ark of the compiler, the barrier type of code ( C, C ++, the Java, JavaScript, Kotlin, etc.) compiled into executable code. As well as their development environment, developers can automatically adapt a different device UI and so on. Hong Meng OS there are very important points: compatible Android applications and open source. Android App is very simple to migrate to Hong Meng, Yu Chengdong that as long as 1-2 days.
Active or passive response to fight back?
5G, the era of things coming soon. Estimated soon will become a standard smart furniture and equipment, and a variety of smart devices can be networked, mobile phones as the center can control all devices. Things also a great imagination, like having a smart phone, people can create a variety of App; has been the basis of things that people can use to create a variety of scenarios. We went through the mobile Internet era, saw the hero in a technology-driven, as the rise of Huawei, millet, etc., I believe that relying on already established hardware advantages, ecological advantages, they will be leading the era of things.
From obscurity OS features as well as supporting the view, Hong Meng OS mainly to things created. Huawei is leading in terms of things 5G technology, led by its access standard Internet of Things ( HiLink agreement, has been widely supported), and now the things apply to the operating system as well as supporting the development environment, compiler and so on. Things phone should be the most important part, because the phone is the center of control, and consumers most closely. Huawei's mobile phone market share is already the world's second. Huawei whole chain of things to have control of the infrastructure, but the phone except the operating system.
Hong Meng OS appears to be the order of things, it is responsible for coping Android blockade of the mission is more important. Because of it, so it is not blocked. If Android can not be used, it can be used directly obscurity. But the operating system is not a short time will be able to establish the ecological, any moment and think iOS and Android Yingkang are unlikely to be successful, then take a look at Microsoft's Windows Phone will know. So obscurity OS must be compatible Android App and can very easily turn Android App migrated.
But Hong Meng OS is just a passive response to blockade it? I believe that Huawei's look beyond this. Huawei has mobile phone market share advantage 5G technology, networking layout. These advantages can be in the moment slowly erode Android's share of the market in the future when things broke out, who knows obscurity open-source OS will not shake the Android and iOS position?
