Huawei Claims They Have Something Better Than The Linux Kernel

Tony40Tony40 Member

Huawei is known for its interesting innovations in smartphone tech. So, it is an intriguing claim.

Announced during an event where Yu Chengdong, the CEO of Huawei's Consumer Business Group, unveiled what HarmonyOS NEXT would offer. He said that their company had made “a true OS this time which installs full-stack self-developed technologies and doesn't rely upon the U.S. traditional Linux cores”.

As for the Harmony kernel, Yu added that it uses a “heterogeneous native-like” mechanism to offer a smooth experience, and that the Harmony kernel implementation for HarmonyOS NEXT is three times more memory efficient than Linux.

    OpenHarmony (OHOS), is an open-source version of HarmonyOS donated by Huawei to the OpenAtom Foundation.

    Really?

    Edit: Seems it might or might not be open🫂

    I’m too lazy to research this. I’ll come back once it’s established if it’s open or not.

  • I guess they're going back further than just ripping off Apple... in a few years, maybe they'll reinvent the phone boxes Woz made in college.

    I don't think employees who know themselves may be jailed by their company will be innovative.

  • Does it report back all usage activity to the mothership in Beijing?

  • just bull shit, everybody know they jut remove gms and put they're app store in android and say them made a new os lol

  • With tons of developers' devotion to make linux a better kernel,a company can archieve this miracle alone?But if Huawei leads some amazing innovations,that's their really contribution to the open-source world.
