'Pure Blood HarmonyOS' explores the direction of future operating systems

2024-10-30

Recently, the release of HarmonyOS NEXT, a native HarmonyOS system, has attracted widespread attention. The technological and autonomous breakthroughs achieved by Native HarmonyOS in areas such as kernel, programming language, and built-in AI have earned it the nickname "Pure Blood HarmonyOS" and are also an important step in the development of Chinese operating systems. As is well known, the development of the information industry is based on two major foundations: chips and operating systems. Chips that integrate computing and data processing functions, as the core components of electronic devices, are not only essential for downstream industries such as mobile phones, computers, and automobiles, but also highly dependent on upstream manufacturing processes such as design, manufacturing, and packaging. They are the foundation and core of the entire industry chain; The operating system is responsible for managing the hardware resources of the computer and providing a running environment for upper level application software, serving as a "bridge" connecting hardware and software. The two together form the foundation of the development of the information industry. Faced with China's huge demand for industrial informatization, on the one hand, the autonomy of chips and operating systems is related to national security and industrial security; On the other hand, the development of chips and operating systems will lay the foundation for the high-quality development of the information industry. In addition, the emergence of native HarmonyOS also takes into account both current demand and future development considerations. After 3 years of development, HarmonyOS has become the third largest mobile system in the world. According to data, there are currently over 1 billion HarmonyOS based HarmonyOS ecosystem devices. A large number of users means a large amount of data. For Internet enterprises, data is an important strategic resource and a heavy responsibility. From the perspective of protecting user information security and national security, developing native operating systems meets the urgent needs of society for information security. In terms of future development, smart terminals will not be limited to computers and mobile phones, but will include a series of products such as computers, mobile phones, watches, smart screens, and smart cars. Therefore, future oriented operating systems should be interconnected, enabling various devices to call and manage each other. However, traditional operating systems, whether they are Windows, Android, or iOS, are designed for different devices. Although they can achieve file transfer, the threshold for mutual connection is high. This kind of problem may not be obvious in daily use at present, but there is indeed a gap with the needs of the intelligent era. For Huawei, developing native HarmonyOS is not only about bypassing technology blockades and achieving domestic replacement of operating systems, but also about looking to the future and exploring the embryonic form and development direction of human future operating systems. For example, devices powered by native HarmonyOS can smoothly convert information and interact with each other. When processing files on the computer and finding that a live photo is needed, picking up the phone and taking the photo will directly appear in the file. It can be said that native HarmonyOS is not only an achievement in operating system development, but also represents the exploration of Chinese enterprises towards future production and living needs. However, it is necessary to point out that today's native HarmonyOS still has a considerable distance to go before success. The ultimate success of an operating system depends on the formation of an ecosystem. Only when more and more applications based on this operating system become more and more practical, will the user reputation continue to improve. At the beginning, Microsoft's Windows Phone system also received strong support, but it was ultimately abandoned by Microsoft due to an imperfect ecosystem and a long-term shortage of applications and users. Today's native HarmonyOS has only taken the first step, bigger challenges are still ahead. From the situation of public testing, it can be seen that the native HarmonyOS ecosystem still needs more manufacturers and application support to improve various functions, in order to avoid discomfort during use and retain users who come to "try new things". Building an ecosystem is not a one-time effort, and establishing such an industrial chain may require some time of accumulation. The birth of native HarmonyOS is a source of pride for China, which is currently facing a technological blockade from the West, and it also has encouraging significance for other "global southern" countries that are also striving to climb the peak of intelligent technology. The crowd gathered firewood and the flames were high. With the active participation of more and more enterprises, the ecosystem of domestic systems will continue to be improved, which will lay a strong foundation for the "infrastructure construction" of China's information industry and ensure a stable and far-reaching future.
