Huawei has blazed its own path in terms of operating systems. At present, Huawei's self-developed Hongmeng operating system has completed a major ecological breakthrough, and has achieved more than 300 million self-operated Equipped with equipment.
After this, Google accelerated the cross-terminal ecological application layout and decided to release an SDK that supports cross-device. By then, Android APP can run on Apple, Windows and other operating systems. Is Google getting worried? Google controls , Fuchsia OS, can it become a rival of and Hongmeng ?
Hongmeng Ecosystem is accelerating its development, and Google is worried
Huawei and Google are competitors on two paths. Huawei originally relied on the Android system to achieve hundreds of millions of annual shipments and shine in overseas markets. This allows Google to earn huge advertising fees and promote the vigorous development of the Android system ecosystem.
However, Google has stopped authorizing Huawei's GMS service, resulting in Huawei's overseas mobile phones being unable to use the Google mobile framework. The shipped mobile phones are equivalent to "bricks" and have APP functions such as Google-related app stores, games, cloud disks, maps, etc. None of them can be used.
Huawei decided to be self-reliant, so it launched the Hongmeng operating system project. Since the release of Harmony OS 1.0 system in 2019, it has reached the official version 3.0.
And according to data released by Huawei, Hongmeng has exceeded 300 million devices. If you add in the Hongmeng Zhilian devices from domestic manufacturers, the number may reach more than 400 million units.
Seeing the accelerated development of Hongmeng Ecosystem, it may be too late if Google doesn’t do something. Google's biggest advantage is that it controls the Android kernel and has ecological control over the Android camp. With the support of tens of millions of developers, it has contributed millions of Android APP ecological pools to Google.
Google is currently laying out Fuchsia OS, which is the Internet of Things operating system that benchmarks Huawei Hongmeng. It can also run on smartphones, tablets, computers, smart watches and other terminal devices.
only has limited progress in the Fuchsia OS ecosystem and is still in the development stage. In order to promote the soundness of the Fuchsia OS ecosystem, Google announced a new decision to launch a cross-device software development kit SKD, so that Android APP can run on many devices such as TVs, tablets, and cars. Even an Apple phone can run Android APP.
This is Google’s rare cross-device terminal layout, which shows that Google is getting anxious. Hongmeng's ecological development is growing day by day, opening up a clear gap with Google's Fuchsia OS.
Perhaps Google knows that it is difficult to catch up with Hongmeng in the normal development process, so Google’s strategy is to take advantage of the Android APP ecological pool and make millions of Android APPs compatible with other terminal devices. In this way, when Google officially releases Fuchsia OS, users will no longer need to worry about the small number of APPs, and the problem of the software ecosystem will be solved immediately.
Of course, it will take time to observe the specific effects. Developers cannot complete cross-terminal software development overnight. And compared to Hongmeng OS, Google Fuchsia OS has a lot of tricks.
For example, Hongmeng system starts completely from the bottom architecture. Huawei provides developers with the Ark compiler, and will also bring the Cangjie programming language in the future. Coupled with the excellent code contributions of the open source community , developers truly start from the bottom of the technology to achieve One-time development, multi-terminal adaptation effect. But if Google wants to use software toolkits to solve problems, it's not that easy.
Google controls Fuchsia OS, can it become Hongmeng’s rival?
The Internet of Things is a huge emerging market. Cars, watches, refrigerators, etc. are all components of the Internet of Things field. With the huge market prospects, Google is also fully interested.
Therefore, we have already started the relevant layout and started the research and development of Fuchsia OS operating system.So, with Fuchsia OS in hand, can Google become Hongmeng’s rival?
Theoretically, Fuchsia OS and Hongmeng are products of the same nature, so it is only a matter of time before they become rivals. Once Google releases Fuchsia OS, it will be easy to promote it abroad.
After all, the foreign Android mobile phone market is Google’s main position. In addition to deploying Hongmeng system in China, Huawei has not released related Hongmeng system products abroad. It is one thing that
can become a rival of Hongmeng, but whether it is a rival is another matter. Google continues to squeeze the performance of Android and tries to fully integrate Android applications into Fuchsia OS. If Google does not have enough developers, developing native applications for Fuchsia OS will not be beneficial to innovation and development.
However, Hongmeng is already at the forefront of Fuchsia OS, with a large number of APP adaptation support and millions of developers contributing rich native applications. In terms of hardware, electrical appliance giants such as Midea, Joyoung, and Fotile are all developing Hongmeng home appliances. Such ecological progress cannot be surpassed by Google at will.
Summary
Huawei Hongmeng achieved an ecological breakthrough with 300 million devices installed. After this, Google announced a new decision to launch an SDK software package that supports multiple devices running Android APP.
Google’s move seems to speed up the adaptation process of Android APPs across multiple devices and prepare for the future of Fuchsia OS. As everyone knows, Fuchsia OS, which lacks technical architecture and innovation, is already lost in the future.
