Huawei Hongmeng OS, is it OK?

In recent days, , Senior vice president of public affairs of Huawei Joy Tan In an interview , Hongmeng OS Fewer lines of code , safer .Counterpoint Research According to the report , The Hongmeng operating system is expected to be in 2020 More than at the end of the year ​ ​Linux​​, Become the fifth most popular intelligent digital terminal operating system .

Joy Tan Express , Hongmeng operating system is a distributed system 、 Lightweight 、 Compact operating system , At the same time, it has powerful functions . Compared to other operating systems on the market , It has a much smaller number of lines of code , So it's more secure .

She said , Hongmeng operating system and Android and iOS For different purposes , Developers only need to develop applications once , Applications can be flexibly deployed to multiple different terminals .

“ We just released Hongmeng a few months ago , Now there are market research companies Counterpoint Research A report , The Hongmeng operating system is expected to be in 2020 More than at the end of the year Linux, Become the fifth most popular intelligent digital terminal operating system .”

Market Research Organization Counterpoint The latest report says , Huawei's own operating system, Hongmeng, will be in 2020 Acquired in 2% Market share （ Worldwide ）, transcend Linux Become the fifth largest operating system in the world .
