OpenHarmony 3.0 set to launch on September 30

Early in July, the OpenAtom foundation launched the OpenHarmony 2.0 Canary version and later 2.2 version in August. Now, this joint community is preparing to launch OpenHarmony 3.0 project for the developers.

According to the information, OpenHarmony 3.0 version will launch on September 30 that will bring new features for the developers and the development of the OpenHarmony project.

To mark this occasion, the OpenHarmony is sending invitations to the industry to join the developers and experience various new technologies as well as the capability of this open-source software.

OpenHarmony 2:

Conducted on July 27, over 160 expertise among 18 enterprises has participated in the event. This is the first-ever grand event in the open-source industry of the Chinese market.

Huawei with other firms including JD.com, Runhe, Ekatong, and many others had donated the core codes in four groups for the project. Besides, Andrei Gherzan, Bernhard Rosenkraenzer, and Jianyu Liu with their colleagues from the 18 firms had participated individually.

The recently released OpenHarmony 2.2 Beta 2 comes with support for distributed capabilities, cross-device ability transfer, and LiteOS.

LiteOS is a lightweight real-time operating system that helps in faster graphics accelerated rendering function, and staged adaption to development platforms such as Dayu and Raspberry Pi with typically distributed capabilities.

Furthermore, this new update also brings support for distributed cross-device ability transfer. It now has the ability to link multi-devices, so that applications can be divided, combined, and circulated without interruptions.

The OpenHarmony is the next-gen open-source operating system, which is supported on several platforms and works on the Internet of everything. With these newly added functionalities, the OpenHarmony will allow developers to be more productive.

In September 2020, Huawei donated code related to the smart device operating system to the Open Atom Open Source foundation which was open source. And hence, this project was named as OpenAtom OpenHarmony.

OpenHarmony 2.2 Beta 2 key features

Distributed framework capabilities:

• Distributed soft bus: The active discovery is supported based on Wi-Fi and a self-organized network between the devices. It uses distributed soft buses to realize high-speed communication between devices without taking the detail of communication into consideration.
• Distributed data management: It supports data synchronization between rich and encrypted devices.
• Distributed task scheduling: Here the developers can check the distributed Cross-Device Ability Circulation
