The biggest failure is to delete the user's program in the background. Who will use it?
It's simple: Alibaba Cloud lacks market applications, so it can be said that there are almost no big market applications. Because Ali doesn't have mobile phone terminals and other services, others don't use them, which is equivalent to waste.
Unlike Huawei, there are a large number of mobile phone users, so it is easy to occupy a certain market and have an application foundation.
just like chip research and development, there is no shortage of chip research and development units in China, but why did nothing succeed, only Huawei succeeded? Because other companies don't have the market application conditions and the funds can't be recovered, they can't form sustainable development.
Huawei has the market application foundation and the means to withdraw funds. Communication business, closely related to the three major operators, has long provided contract machines for operators. With this relationship and business, Huawei chips are actually underwritten by operators. It can be said that there is no worries and it can be realized, so it can continue to develop healthily.
Although HarmonyOS system is very popular, it will soon have some basic users, but it is still difficult or even impossible to completely compete with Android. Only the domestic market is not enough. And HarmonyOS system wants to go to sea, which is basically impossible. Other domestic manufacturers will still choose Android if there is no pressure to use it. Because after all, it is a mature system and a perfect ecosystem. Moreover, other countries have overseas business, and Android can't be lost. Dual system will increase its adaptation burden and cost. Without the existence of force majeure, HarmonyOS system will not be selected.
Actually, we should look at the essence of the problem. I have summarized that 1 yunos is an Android-compatible system! He has no ecological environment of his own! The environment did not allow it. At that time, there was no trade war and no US science and technology ban. Even when he was born, no one wrote an application for him! It was born too early! HarmonyOS system is the product of the development of the times at home and abroad! It should be born of 5G Internet of Everything! It is the next generation operating system. He's going to turn over the iOS, Android and win systems! HarmonyOS operating system has application qualities that yunos does not have. Looking forward to his recent release!
Alibaba Cloud os can get rid of Android control and is compatible with Android. The technical team is also top-notch. There are three reasons
1. Born at an inopportune time
2. Without ecology, they all went with Android
3. Without patriotism, YunOS is actually rewritten by Android. Essentially the same as Android, it is said that the Android intermediate library has been rewritten. This is for the sake of domestic production, and the new system is the first feature and the second difference. Yinos is no different from Android, and the efficiency of yunos execution is not as good as using Android directly because of its desperate adaptation. There is no bright spot. On the one hand, there are still many disadvantages, such as poor execution efficiency and remote deletion of doors. Huawei HarmonyOS is different. He started by building his own bottom layer and has his own way. In addition, compatible with Android, he also optimized the execution efficiency of Android! Don't lose Android in strength. In addition, the application scenario of microkernel is not comparable to that of Android.
After deleting the user program in the background, no one played with him in the system background, and the authority was so great.

YunOs (currently called Alios). There are essentially three reasons why the OS of HarmonyOS and Yunos are faced with two worlds of ice and fire. < P > First, YunOS only existed as a substitute for Android at the beginning of its birth, and its use experience is not excellent, while HarmonyOS OS has its own more ambitious plans, not just a simple substitute.
thirdly, Yunos lacks the opportunity to launch on the ground, while Huawei HarmonyOS OS has abundant opportunities to launch.
let's talk about it one by one.
at the beginning of its birth, Yunos was only a substitute for Android. Its biggest feature is that it can directly run WEB applications in the cloud, which is similar to the current HTML 5APP (encapsulating a browser and directing a URL). However, in 211, when Yunos was born, the communication performance of 3G network was very poor, so Yunos did not show its unique advantages at that time, but because there were several remote applications.
and at that time, Yunos couldn't be Root. Compared with the fun Android system, Yunos also didn't have any playability. Ordinary users are not aware of it, and geek users are not interested. It is strange that such Yunos can become a talent.
HarmonyOS OS is not a substitute for Android in essence. It is a brand-new operating system based on microkernel and distributed ideas, which is mainly used for Internet of Things devices. In fact, its bid is for fuchsia OS, a brand-new operating system that Google has been concentrating on developing, which is also based on microkernel, and is also interpreted by the outside world as a substitute for Android.
that is to say, the identity of HarmonyOS OS is actually a substitute, not a substitute, with a word difference of thousands of miles.
So, for users, the unique advantages displayed by HarmonyOS system are actually very attractive, because the 5G era was originally an era of Internet of Everything, and Huawei took the lead.
the second reason is the time of birth.
The third reason: the difference of system delivery ability
As an Internet company, Alibaba has no actual hardware support, so it is actually a very big problem for Alibaba to get Yunos to land. At that time, Alibaba chose Meizu because Alibaba invested in Meizu.
As for other leading mobile phone companies, their attitude towards Yunos is very cold, because Yunos has a large number of Internet service systems built in by Alibaba, which is unacceptable for other mobile phone companies with the right to speak. (In addition, Google's constraint is also a factor.)
So at that time, Yinos could only be put into some low-end models produced by cottage phones or unpopular mobile phone brands (such as Tianyu mobile phones). This kind of operation has made Yunos's reputation worse and worse, because low-end machines are prone to the problem of being stuck, and once the mobile phone is stuck, consumers will be linked to the operating system for the first time.
Huawei, on the other hand, is the largest mobile phone brand in China. When Yu Chengdong called out that HarmonyOS will fully adapt to Huawei's mobile phones in 221, the gap was vividly reflected, and its landing resources were totally unavailable to Ali.
Generally speaking, if any system wants to develop and take shape, it is necessary to have the right time, right place and one person. As far as the current situation is concerned, HarmonyOs OS does have the soil for growth. Whether it can grow into a towering tree depends on Huawei's nature.
personally, the two are caused by different development paths. Alibaba Cloud's lack of mobile phone business is a shortcoming, but it is not fatal. The most deadly thing is to cling to the system. You can only use Alibaba Cloud. Any change must be approved by it, and there is no sovereignty. In other words, manufacturers have no incentive to repair the system, and the Alibaba Cloud system is left to fend for itself. Such a system is lifeless. Compared with Android in the same period, we found that Google made a framework, and other manufacturers can build on the framework to form a part of themselves. Therefore, Huawei made EMUI, Xiaomi made MIUI, ... and many others, which can be said to be flourishing. However, Google is not a philanthropist. When Android is brought to the current prosperity, it is thinking about harvesting. It is modifying the underlying framework, commonly known as upgrading. This is Android 8/9/1/11. If you don't obey, you won't use it. Huawei is typical. You can only use the old Android.
HarmonyOS was built by Huawei with a huge sum of money, but it is very clever. Unlike Alibaba Cloud, Huawei first opened the source in HarmonyOS, and the bottom layer is HarmonyOS. Other manufacturers can develop and create their own characteristics just like Android, so this is the biggest difference. You can even form your own patents for the system based on HarmonyOS without moving the bottom layer!
so, the difference between the two is whether it can arouse the interest and investment of other manufacturers, and the deeper level is whether the investment has its own patent and whether it is profitable. HarmonyOS takes the lead in open source, and hopes to keep open source, which can be used by every manufacturer. Not only mobile phones, but also smart devices such as cars, air conditioners and refrigerators can be connected to HarmonyOS. If we continue to improve this open source system, it will certainly develop very well!
To put it simply, HarmonyOS is the trunk of a big tree. As for the lush foliage, it is the business of other manufacturers. Huawei is also spreading its branches, but the latter should be Huawei's patent and can be maintained. A car can also be made into a branch, and then the leaves are scattered ... Other analogies
One of the main reasons why Ali's YunOS system has not been made is that it has no strong partners to acquire users. YunOS initially chose some popular mobile phones of Samsung, Xiaomi, Yijia and other brands as ROMs, and the users brushed their own experience. However, the functions of the first few versions of YunOS are relatively simple, and users who are familiar with the brush operation are picky about the ROM of the mobile phone, while YunOS has strict control over permissions, even root is very difficult, so there are not many users who are willing to take the initiative to try YunOS.
Later, Ali YunOS also recruited some mobile phone brands as partners, among which Meizu should be the most famous. Meizu has launched several models for YunOS, such as Charm Blue metal, Charm Blue 2, Charm Blue and Meizu MX4. Unfortunately, although Meizu has a high reputation, when YunOS cooperated with Meizu, the sales of Meizu mobile phones were not as high as before. Therefore, Meizu mobile phones equipped with YunOS did not sell too much in the end, resulting in YunOS failing to get more users.
In addition, Ali YunOS does not have much advantage in function compared with the Android system at that time. The main feature of YunOS is its fast boot speed, and some applications (such as Taobao) can be turned on in seconds. Although this feature was attractive at that time, with the continuous improvement of domestic mobile phone hardware, the running speed of ordinary Android phones was fast enough, and the lightweight feature of YunOS did not attract too many users.
YunOS has a serious problem that it is not open source. We know that YunOS is developed based on Linux, and Linux itself is an open source system, so YunOS should also disclose the source code according to the open source agreement. However, Ali refused to do so, which led to the controversy over YunOS after its release, and even many netizens questioned that YunOS was magic change's Android system.
One consequence of not open source is that no developer is willing to develop a third-party APP for YunOS. Although Ali has strong technical ability, it is impossible to cover all mobile phone functions. At least WeChat has not developed a special version for YunOS. Therefore, YunOS has to choose compatible Android applications, and Android applications need to run through virtual machines in YunOS system, which reduces the operating efficiency of the system and affects the user experience.
from the point of view of mobile phone manufacturers, using a non-open source operating system will cause the manufacturers to lose control of their mobile phones, and make them become simple hardware producers, unable to generate more revenue through the post-service of mobile phones. Therefore, major brands such as Huawei, Xiaomi, OPPO and vivo have not chosen to cooperate with YunOS to launch models equipped with this system.
in contrast, Huawei's HarmonyOS system has more advantages. First of all, Huawei is currently the first mobile phone manufacturer in China and the second in the world. The annual mobile phone shipments exceed 2 million units, and there are hundreds of millions of Huawei mobile phone users in China alone. Therefore, once Huawei launches the HarmonyOS system, it can be immediately deployed on the existing Huawei mobile phones. Even if only one percent of Huawei users choose to switch to the HarmonyOS system, it is not a small number, which is conducive to the rapid promotion of the HarmonyOS system.
Secondly, although the EMUI system that Huawei is currently using is based on Android, it has also been completely customized, such as GPU Turbo and EROFS file management, which are all functions that Android does not have. Therefore, it can be said that Huawei has accumulated more experience in the field of mobile phone system than Ali, so the mobile phone system in HarmonyOS will be more in line with the usage habits of domestic users.
Before Huawei officially launched HarmonyOS OS, it had helped APPlication developers to become familiar with the development environment of HarmonyOS system through HMS and Ark compiler. Therefore, after HarmonyOS OS was officially launched, Android APPlication developers could quickly switch Android app to HarmonyOS app and quickly establish the ecological environment of HarmonyOS OS.
Finally, Huawei has promised that the HarmonyOS system will be completely open source, and even invited friends to use this system. Although Xiaomi, OPPO and vivo are unlikely to use Huawei's system in a short time, the open source approach can also dispel some users' doubts. At least netizens are using HarmonyOS's mobile phone, so they don't have to worry that the system will secretly collect privacy in the background, or delete the applications installed by users without permission.
whether it is Huawei's fire or HarmonyOS's fire, or whether other companies will have the same treatment as Huawei's HarmonyOS after making HarmonyOS, the answer is obvious; In fact, it's not that YUNOS was not popular at the beginning, but that it was born at an untimely time. HarmonyOS, who was born extraordinary, was born extraordinary.
At that time, YUNOS appeared at a bad time. At that time, there were so many "domestic systems" that people didn't feel much about self-research, not to mention YUNOS's experience was not outstanding. At that time, everyone's eyes were only deeply customized Android, such as MIUI, Flyme, hammer, etc. If it were today, maybe the situation would be different.
So, just as Lei Jun said, it is very important to follow the trend, and many times choice is more important than hard work. It's not so much that HarmonyOS was forced out, but that it took advantage of the situation. What can it do if it doesn't research itself when it has no system available? As far as the current situation is concerned, HarmonyOS's potential construction is very successful.
In ancient times, we paid attention to the right time, the right place and the right people. Now HarmonyOS is basically occupied. As long as its product experience can keep up, its future development will definitely be smooth. On the contrary, if the weather is bad from time to time, the land is unfavorable, and people don't do well in products, there may not be a market. In the short term, HarmonyOS does have a sudden outbreak.
